Evelyn | A Positive Outlook
Posted on October 13, 2015 by Julie Smead
As Luke arrived at her apartment for a visit, Evelyn S. welcomed her grandson’s abundant hugs and kisses as a good sign. She wants Luke and all her grandchildren to inherit her trademark optimism.
100-year-old “Gigi” (Evelyn’s nickname since becoming a great-grandmother) believes the secret to her longevity is her positive attitude – along with the fact that she has never smoked and has always surrounded herself with family and friends. Her advice for everybody is that “nobody should be alone.”
