Mr. Beanz Posted November 24, 2021 Share #1 Posted November 24, 2021 Assuming they are still alive, how old? Or how old were they? Just strikes my curiosity as I read other replies in the "those were the days my friend" thread. My dad played that song over and over and over. Someone mentioned making a recording for their father, mine passed away. So I wonder how old they were, almost a comparison thought like "my dad was 30 when this came out, vs another who might have been 35, but still living (?). My mom is 82 and still living. My Dad was 79 and passed away about 3 years ago. He was one month shy of 80. I'm 58.........and a half. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shootingstar Posted November 24, 2021 Share #5 Posted November 24, 2021 My mother is 87. My father died at 85, 7 yrs. ago. My mother had me as eldest, when she was 24 yrs. old ..which at that time for women, it was getting "old". My father was 30 when I was born. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sheep_herder ★ Posted November 24, 2021 Share #7 Posted November 24, 2021 Parents are long gone, but I turned 79 in September and my wife will turn 80 in mid-December. Not sure about the ages of my folks when they passed, but my dad passed in the mid-80s when we were in Oregon and my mom passed in the early 2000s after we moved to Montana. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsnip Totin Jack ★ Posted November 24, 2021 Share #8 Posted November 24, 2021 Mom just turned 90. She enjoyed the celebration. Dad would be 92 but he passed at 76. Both of my grandfathers and my Dad’s brother died in their 40’s. Grandfathers passed from a heart attack and a stroke. Dad and his brother Norman passed from cancer. Norman was older and served in WWII, 82nd Airborne and was part of the DDay offensive. We like to say, that’s why it’s called Normandy today. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow, that is going back. My parents born in 39. My grands were 86, uncle is 87. Some say we have good genes but my mom's mom died at 51. Seemed old then but now, seems like a baby way too young to die. That is the bad strike against me. So most think I'll live to be mid 80's at least. Though that does not sound like much fun.

Mr. Beanz Posted November 24, 2021 Author Share #15 Posted November 24, 2021 FTR, I am liking the posts as I appreciate the responses and not because your parents have died. Kind of creeps me out on facebook at times to LIKE something posted in misfortune of another. But I get it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rattlecan ★ Posted November 24, 2021 Share #16 Posted November 24, 2021 My dad died in 2013 aged 87. Mom is alive and well at 89. I am at her place now for a couple of days to get the place winterized and help her with some other odd jobs. She still lives in the house I and my brothers grew up in. A house she and Dad built together. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, wow that is amazing! She can move like that? Wow, I am impressed!

Ralphie ★ Posted November 24, 2021 Share #25 Posted November 24, 2021 3 grandparents lived to their upper 90s, but one died in his 50s. Looks like a lot of men expire in their early 80s and a lot of wimmin make it to the early 90s and up! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tizeye Posted November 24, 2021 Share #27 Posted November 24, 2021 My dad died when I was 4, and two step fathers are deceased as well. In a couple weeks, mom will be 92. Living with my sister, and just put her house on the market as returning for independent living at the house is unrealistic. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
