Grace LePayne will turn 107 on December 8, 2022. She wore gold hoop earrings and lovely necklaces to eagerly share her great day with the world.

Not everything was always so bright and sunny. LePayne had to deal with the Great Depression and the loss of her seven-year-old son. Her spouse died not long after.

LePayne values her family, who she enjoys spending time with. When asked what her favorite pastimes were, the old lady smiled and replied, “What do I like to do?” “I’m not in the mood to do anything right now.”

Her relatives, on the other hand, disagree with this notion, pointing out that she is quite busy. LePayne cooks for her relatives, goes shopping, and loves spending time with her grandkids and great-grandchildren.

Relatives traveled from North Carolina, Missouri, Tennessee, Illinois, and New York to celebrate her birthday and share lovely memories. LePayne clearly enjoys her life and can’t wait to celebrate with her family, stating, “I’m happy to have all my family here.”

The question that everyone had after meeting LePayne was always the same: how she managed to live such a long and happy life. LePayne may not have discovered the Fountain of Youth, but her sense of humor will keep her looking fresh for a long time.

How did she live such an extended life? She said, “Just be happy.” – It is the most crucial. If LePayne’s “secret” is any guide, we should be thankful, caring, and cheerful!
