Have you ever wondered what centenarians do differently?

In 2021, I invited my 96-year-old grandpa, George Mellor, to join me on the show to share how his lifestyle directly impacted his longevity. I am replaying this episode with a heavy heart today, as he passed away recently, shortly before his 100th birthday.

Grandpa George’s Keys to Longevity:

Farm-Fresh Food and Home Cooked Meals
Relaxing and Rejuvenating
Resilience
Community
Drinking Plenty of Water
Faith

George Mellor's Bio:

George Mellor was my grandfather, who lived for almost 100 years. He was a farmer, and his farm was the first in his region to implement irrigation.

In this episode:

What a farm-life diet looked like in the early 1900s
How food production now differs from when Grandpa George grew up
Why making time for rest and rejuvenation is essential
Grandpa George’s best ways to rest and rejuvenate
Why faith truly matters
The benefits of community for longevity
The benefits of drinking plenty of water, staying resilient, and having strong faith
Grandpa George’s favorite breakfast foods

Grandpa George left us peacefully, sharp and witty as ever. He was my last living grandparent, and my son William carries his name as a middle name. I am grateful he did not suffer and is now at peace, and I am thankful that my husband, Eric, got to know him well and my sons, Eric and Mikey, managed to spend time with him.

I truly loved my grandpa George and will cherish his memory forever. He left a profound legacy for his family and community, and I will always be grateful for all he did for his family.
