  • “Granny”, who lived to 112, left this advice, “Be lively – just as easy to be lively as biting others head off. Trust in God, don’t worry and read the Bible. I don’t care much for TV,” Granny said. “Used to watch ‘As the World Turn’ but I stopped this.” “Granny” remained in almost perfect health all of her days.
