The World’s Oldest Man died yesterday. He was 114 years old, born in 1896. He lived through it all: no electricity as a child, Henry Ford building cars on the assembly line (bought his first car for $150), Roosevelt’s New Deal, the first woman elected to Congress, the Great Depression, numerous wars, the start of Elvis Presley, Beatlemania, the first man to walk on the moon and the birth of computers. In my eyes his life was a history book.
