Death

[Hewsly]

My great grandad aged 98 died today. He was so hard that he never lived in a nursing home and did everything himself... which tbh ultimatly lead to his death...lol he slipped in the bathroom! but like all great kings that die near a toilet (elvis) he wont be forgotten!

How old is your oldest relative? shame he didnt get a mention from the queen!

I think my G-parents are nearing 85 now and they still go skiing. I swear I'll die of old age before they do.

That is cool, i dread getting old.

98 is a great age to live to. Did he serve in both World Wars? Hat's off to him.

LOL! he was still doing that garden and fittings of fence posts when he was 95... we almost had to put him down becuase it seemed like he was too healthy...:detective:

Oldest is in her late 80's. My great Gran lived to 99 until she died a few years ago, feels bad man.

ermm i know he served in the second. But he wasnt infantry he was a coal miner. After the war he got free coal for life! till up to today whenever he needed it! Good hey!

[Hewsly]

EDIT - he would of been too young during the first!

[bboy90]

My great gran is 98 going a bit deaf and cant really see too well but still all there great sense of humor etc.

[Delboy]

Did you just "lol" at the fact your grandad slipped and fell to death in a bathroom?
Then refer to elvis..

If my grandad died i wouldnt be cracking jokes!
Sorry for the loss, condolences to your family.

[VTR_Bass87]

Elvis died in the bathroom i wanna go the same way!, he died of old age. Not drink driving, its sad yes but he lived a life longer than more than likely all of us on here. He would of laughed. Its not insensitive at all, poor old bugger is going to a better place!

its a welsh thing, he was welsh and lived on his own in a detatched house just past cross hands. Mental he was!

[Moke]

Car crash killed him, one of the nicest kids you could've met, had loads going for him

[Gabbastard]

My grandad got to 94. I used to walk into his living room, see him sitting in his chair and go "christ, are you still here? Im going to have to get a silver bullet to finish you off" and he'd just laugh.

That's usually the case mate...

My mate was taken from us a year ago.. Was only 18.

Killed by a van driver overtaking on a fast, windy road.

He was going to be in the Olympics this year...

It's difficult to comprehend isn't it, I hope the van driver is doing time?

I've never been told what happened... Don't fancy asking his parents either.

I'll find out one day!

[ha_x3]

Sorry to hear about your grandad, but it sounds like he lived his life to the full etc :y:

[Pomaz]

*waits for the sarcy cunts to comment in thread*

[wassy78]

Sorry for your loss . Be great to live that long :) hope your ok m8

[Rudpud]

I dread getting old. I want to die before I become mental or anything that stops me living to my fullest (I know not all old people have age problems).

Sorry for your loss, but he had a good long life!

[Furio-Gazza]

Sorry for your loss :n:

[JamesR]

My grandma is my oldest relative at 86 and still going strong both physically and mentally :)

OP - 98 is a bloody good age, especially to be taking care of yourself.

[Jay_]

My GREAT grandmother is 97 now. She thinks her (deceased) husband is at war and will be back soon... :S I expect her to be leaving us soon tbh :(

My granddad just turned 70 and cycles about 8000 miles per year...far fitter than I will ever be which is embarrassing...

Sorry for your loss man!

[Manu]

lol he slipped in the bathroom!

How compassionate.

[jw1325]

Sorry for your loss.

We lost my great gran at 99. She was moved into a nursing home about 3 months before she died - up till then she was doing everything herself and was fit as a fiddle. She refused to go into the home because 'Aw the buggers in there are aw auld and dying'

eventually the council put her in a home, and it was the worst thing they could have done as she thrived on her independence. She was mental my auld grannie.

[JackCopley]

Sorry to hear mate!
I never actually met any of my grandparents but i think my gran is about 78 or something, she does everything herself even jumps on the bus and goes into town shopping... she always comes home with bags full, and of course we all know grans buy the best things to stock the cupboards with!

[Liamm]

I have two great grandmas but dont know how old either of them are lol.
My dad's mum's mum, and his dad's mum.
Ones buggered off to Australia for 6 months like she does every year, and the other cant wait for her birthday so she can celebrate 70 years of chain smoking xD
