     “I’m 94. I never smoked and I never drank—not that I thought they were wrong, but my parents didn’t do it, so I didn’t. Though I didn’t think about it at the time, I think that was a big factor in prolonging my life. I’ve lost most of my immediate family: I had a brother who was killed in the Second World War and a sister who died very young. I’m still here, though, sitting on the front porch.
     “I was a teacher, and I always enjoyed it. I taught junior high—they say that’s hard because students are difficult at that age, but I liked them, and I hope they liked me a little bit. I’ve always liked people. I wish I could have worked with them a lot longer. After I retired as a teacher, I worked for the Quincy Market at the information desk for two years. Then one day they said that everybody had to take a drug test. I thought, ‘Gee, that’s not the right thing to do to someone my age!’ It was stupid! So I left. I wasn’t fired, I just left. I’m sorry I did, because I liked it—it was a very pleasant job. It wasn’t about the money: it kept me busy. Still, it was stupid to make everyone take a drug test. I know I never took drugs.”

"My happiest moments were when my mom was still alive."
"What’s your fondest memory of your mother?"
"One time when I was six years old, we went to pick up my father at the airport. On the way, my mother explained to me the concept of boarding a plane and taking a trip. And then while we waited for my father, we sat in a nearby restaurant, and we planned out all the imaginary trips that I wanted to go on."
