Ann Bauer of Michigan, USA, celebrated her 109th birthday on 28 Oct

“Ann has always been inspired to live a healthy life. She is a deeply spiritual person whose faith has helped her persevere. She has a positive outlook on life and a genuine interest in all it has to offer; she is truly a “lifelong learner.” She and her brother started the “120 Club” many years ago. When asked what that was, she said, “Well, based on science, if you take good care of yourself, there’s no reason you can’t live to be 120 years old!” It appears she has almost attained her goal.”
