NADINE M. MATHIS: Living a long and happy life

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Albany resident marks her 96th birthday

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

By Nadine M. Mathis

On Friday the 8th of April, I, Nadine M. Mathis, reached 96 years old, and I am proud to be here, writing and being happy. All of my friends and relatives are gone, dying at earlier ages. I don’t know why, but I say live, let live and go with the flow, however and whatever. We don’t get to change anything.

I do as I want 24/7 and try to stay cool, calm and collected for whatever. I love peace, love and forgiveness. So be it. I am a blessed person. I have been here in Albany 76 years of my lifespan and I enjoy living life one day at a time and doing the things that amount to lots to me. That is, I speak to everyone and let them know I recognize them and keep going. I have had the pleasure of writing to The Albany Herald for the past seven years, and I enjoy that.

NADINE M. MATHIS
