Florida Woman Celebrates 100th Birthday Over The Holidays
According to WESH, Griffin was born on Christmas Day, 1925. She was one of 15 siblings and had 6 children of her own. Joining her at her 100th birthday party were her 96-year-old sister, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and more.
She was born in Georgia but now lives in Oviedo, Florida--where she's lived since WWII! Things have come a long way since she was a youth. Even medicine! She tells WESH, "Daddy would fix our medicine up. He would boil bark off a tree and different things and all, and fix up that medicine for us, for colds and everything. We didn't get sick."
Well, boil me up some bark if it's going to help me reach 100! Read more from WESH here.
