Violet Batchelor Box (1890-1993) - Headstones of Centenarians on Waymarking.com

I really love going to cemeteries as I'm a real history buff, so this was a real interesting challenge to find tombstones of people that lived to be over 100 year old. This lady was born on 1890 and lived to 1993, that's 103 years. She outlived her husband Edward by 40 years. I often wonder, when I look at headstones like this, the story of the people behind the grave. I'll bet Violet would've had some great stories to tell.
Cheers
