Tell me about the furthest ancestor you remember meeting.

I met my great-grandfather once when I was 5 or 6 years old — he was around 80 at that time. Who did you meet? What do you remember about them?

My great-grandmother, she was probably 80 at the time, and lived to be 97.
Kind, wise, a lot of self respect, very capable.
