National Centenarians Day!

Today is National Centenarian’s Day! On September 22nd, National Centenarian’s Day honors those who’ve celebrated 100 birthdays or more. Quoted above, Robert Overton is the longest living US veteran at 111 years of age, and attributes his longevity to unconventional habits.

This day encourages people to listen to the stories centenarians had to tell. Their rich history and wisdom offers a wealth of information. Listening to their life stories proves the age-old saying that with age comes wisdom. At Private Home Care, we love our centenarian clients and are proud to provide the highest level of caregiving! The youngest of the ‘100 Club’ were born after the end of World War I. They represent a living history full of stories not found in books. What is more, listening to their tales of accomplishment and perseverance inspire us today and their personal histories create something legendary for those who hear them. Centenarians provide inspiration to live life to the fullest. Spending time with centenarians leads us to tap into a wealth of knowledge, entertaining stories, and traditions from a time gone by. Today at Private Home Care and all over the world, we celebrate centenarians’ liveliness, uniqueness and their longevity!
