Not many make 98 either.

I don’t know, my best friends husbands mother passed away at 99. She was sharp as a tack, lived in an independent senior home and played cards 2 nights a week until 11 pm, had no health issues and only used a walker for mobility. If I could be like that, great!

Post by: vg7405 on July 02, 2020, 04:19:27 pm: My prayers and condolences to the Reiner family. At first, I had him mixed up with his son, Rob. :( But 98 is a rare age to live to. And given his profession, he seemed to have lived it to the fullest and left us with some wonderful memories to enjoy.

Post by: sfreeman8 on July 03, 2020, 12:33:46 pm: I dont' think 98 is a rare age to live to in today's world of good health practices. A lot of Hollyweird people live that long. I think I just saw where Olivia DeHavilland just turned 103, still living. Look at Betty White-didn't she turn 99?

Hugh Downs just died at 99, Kirk Douglas 103, Edde Byrnes (Kookie, Kookie, Lend me you comb song and 77 Sunset Strip series) 86, Katherine Johnson (portrayed in Hidden Figures) was 101. Lyle Wagoner 84, Orson Bean 91 hit by a car or else he'd still be kicking, Honor Blackman, 94, Jerry Stiller 92. There were also so many who died in the mid-late 80s.

Post by: mardukblood2009 on July 05, 2020, 03:15:19 am: I forgot who he was until I saw it was Meathead's father. I think I seen Carl Reiner in a movie or something a while back but I think he was before my time.
