Connie turned 100 last week, so we threw her a birthday party! “This means a lot because I know they went through a lot of trouble. I didn’t expect anything like this. I used to attend events [hosted by Catholic Charities of Central Florida’s Senior Wellness Services], but I can’t anymore. It’s hard for me. Now I just go in the car for a little ride for the scenery. My secret to making it 100? My glass of wine every night! I even asked the doctor about it, and he said, ‘Keep it up. You’re doing good.’” According to one of her caretakers, Connie “still does everything on her own and stays by herself at night. She makes her own coffee and breakfast. She’s doing good for her age.”
