How old is the oldest person in your family?

[hisno1girl]

Anyone in your immediate family: Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins.

I have a Tia who is 85. My mother is second in line at 78.

[Jalapeñomel]

My father at 67.

[thinkofthesoldiers]

Currently, 94. I've had quite a few live to 100+ (oldest was 104).

[HiC]

My grandfather is 93.  My grandmother is 92.

My father will turn 80 in early September. My mother will be 78 shortly there after.

[Marle]

Um my oldest uncle on my mom's side who is 60 and my dad! on his side who is 67.

All grandparents are gone

[candreco]

My grandmother at 93.

[CurlyQ284]

My grandfather passed away Sunday, he was 95. I guess now its my dad who is 65.

[pantsparty]

I think my aunt must be 65 or something. All of my grandparents have passed.

[5hole]

My grandfather just passed away at Thanksgiving at 98! My dad and stepmom are in their mid 70's.

[thedutchgirl]

My paternal grandmother will be 92 in 19 days.

[speckledfrog]

My grandma is 90. Her mom lived until 96.

MH's grandma is 92. All of his grandparents lived into their 90s, his grandpa was just days shy of his 99th when he passed. There is a lot of longevity on that side!

[HiC]

Oh, and my great aunt (my grandmother's sis) is 94. They all (grandparents and great aunt) just recently stopped driving too.....scary!

My grandpa is pushing 80, not sure exactly how old he is but my dad is 57 and my grandpa was 20 or 21 when he was born.

It's pretty awesome because I remember when I was 11 my dad said he had some heart problems and they didn't expect him to live longer than 5-10 years. Nearly 25 years later, he's still here.

[papie]

My yiayia just turned 89.

[verycontrary247]

My Nanny (dad's mom). She turned 90 this year.

[daisybuchannan]

Grandma is 90.

[azurely]

My grandpa is 89, will turn 90 this year.

He still works part-time, does yardwork, and takes care of my crazy grandma. I pray I have his genes.

[sewf]

I believe my GMIL is 92. She lives alone and is still pretty spry.

My GFIL was 99 when he died, was still a landlord and lived alone. He was obviously raised with racism. The last election he voted in, he voted for Obama. He came a long way!

My grandma is 82.

[blackcat]

My great aunt (sister of my deceased grandmother) is 91, her husband just turned 91, they are adorable together, they live at the beach. I honestly believe the secret to her longevity is that she stays super busy, she has more of a social life than I do! I love her to bits and will be really sad when she is no longer here someday.

[cleo29]

My Gran is 94. She tells me she plans to make it to 96, at least, so not to worry about her going anywhere. lol

[awick14]

My dads mom is 82.

[Deleted]

My maternal great aunt, whom I call every month, turned 90 last Saturday. She is in good health and has 100% of her mental faculties.
My maternal grandma is going to turn 84 this July. She is also in very good health. Walks over 2 miles a day and has a ton of energy.
My grandpa just turned 82. Has Alzheimer unfortunately.

ETA: a pic of my grandma (left) and great aunt (right). They are SIL.

[starlily]

My mom will be 79 in a couple weeks.

My maternal grandfather lived until 102 or so.

My OMA says she's 103, but as far as we can tell she's only 101. She lives alone, in an assisted living facility, makes her own wine and has several boyfriends.

This is how I want to spend the end of my life.

[Deleted]

Currently living? My grandma turns 93 in September and still lives on her own. Before that it was my great great aunt Margaret who was 103. People live a long time on both sides of the family

[blueshirt2003]

My great-grandmother is alive and turned 102 in January.

[TemperanceBrennan]

I have a grandpa who is 90. I'm not sure how old my grandma on that side is. Probably around 80. My other grandparents are 80 and 81, I believe. I think they are the oldest.

[flex]

I'd say in my immediate family on my on my mom's side it's my aunt who is the eldest: she's 76 or 77. I have a great uncle who's in his 90's, but I haven't seen him in decades.

My grandmother passed away five years ago at a week shy of her 94th birthday.
