Don't know- I was back home in 2010 for a High School reunion, 10% of the
class of 1977 is already gone, first death was 3 months after we
graduated. We have several families with entire generations already gone both from grade school and High School. Still haven't figured out longevity, both my paternal
grandparents died when they were 45, they both had parents that were
alive to bury them. Some of my Grandma Baker's siblings lived well into
their 90's I visited one of her sister's 30 years after Grandma died and
went to her mother's funeral (my great grandma) 10 years after grandma
passed passed. My mother-in law passed when she was 50, Her mother and
both her siblings lived to be in their 90's. It was both funny and sad at
her Uncle's funeral, we were at the reception and I was talking to one of
the friends and she started telling me "you know there was another sister
but she died over 30 years ago" I replied yes she was named Esther, she
asked me how I knew of Esther, I pointed over to my two pre-teen daughters
and told her those are my daughters, they're also Esther's grand
daughters. My dad and both his brothers are gone all before they were 75,
only my aunt (their sister) is left, she is the oldest and a 3 time cancer survivor as well as many other ailments (diabetes and some heart issues) . Of the 13 paternal cousins in my generation we have lost two, the first over 50 years ago, the second a little over 15 years ago.
