I have mentioned my grandma in a few of my columns--hey, she's my biggest supporter--and today she turns 95. When I called earlier today, she was playing Scrabble.

David, you are a fortunate man to have a healthy and wise grandma. Give her an extra hug the next time that you see her.

Does she still have a closet full of animals she's crocheted and stashed for whenever a child meets her?

Show me someone that doesn’t love their grandma and I’ll show you a Bob Costas.

The grandma I was closest to was two months short of her 100th birthday when she passed…knocking down Coors Lights and setting the volume to eleven right to the end.

Anyway, I hope she knows how much enjoyment her grandson brings to people.

Yep. She's going to outlive all of us, too.

Good on her for going strong at 95! Lost my grandma last year. She was about three months short of turning 100. Enjoy your grands while you can, folks!

Happy B-Day to your grandma!

I lost both of mine over 10 years ago. One of mine helped bring me up when I was young and I miss her dearly every day.

Congratulations to your grandmother. Hope she has some more happy birthdays.

Last Friday we had a 98th birthday party for my wife's aunt. She still lives by herself and takes care of everything around the house. We did talk her into giving up her car a 3 years ago.
