    Elizabeth has one daughter, who’s in her 90s, three grandchildren, five great-grandchildren and four great-great-grandchildren.

    What a life, to see so many generations come after you.

    I lived for 115 years and all I got was this stupid plaque. What the hell am I supposed to do with a damn plaque? I’m gonna be dead in about 3 weeks!

    Nothing will beat hearing about people that were still alive in the 1800’s. It wasn’t even that long ago either. The last living person from the 1800’s died in 2017.
