Discovery Health Channel
looks at Aging and Longevity
A British production
crew traveled to Phoenix, Ariz., to interview
Lynn for a Discovery
Health Channel three-part series on aging
and longevity.
|
The crew also covered one of the
frequent centenarian get-togethers Lynn hosts at her home and
talked with several more centenarians. |
Pictured here are
(from left to right) Evelyn Peters, NCAP's number one volunteer
and Lynn's mom; Regina Fox, 102; Lynn; and Sherrie Korer, Regina's
granddaughter. |
Getting Ready
Early arrivals, Mr. and Mrs. Freestone and Lenore Schaeffer,
chat with Lynn and Evelyn while Lynn finishes a flower arrangement
in her husband's grandmother's silver flower bowl. |

Lynn greets Ruth Botimer, widow of
our long time friend Lloyd Botimer, who passed away in 1999. |
The producer talking with new centenarian
friends, Buleah Morrison of Michigan, who is spending the winter
in Arizona. Buleah is becoming familiar with the term "snowbird."
Also pictured is Alma Jelle, who reached the century mark last
May and says she is "enjoying every minute of it." |

Lenore Schaeffer and production assistant
Erika share some cake and conversation. Lenore remarks that while
she's always happy to meet new centenarians, she misses "the
old gang." |
We miss them, too: Lloyd Botimer,
Minnie O'Donnell, Merle McEathron, Ben Levinson
and so
many others. Although they are not with us, their memory and
joyful spirit live on in our hearts. |
