Mary Erbin, born August 15 1907, passed away January 14 2017 at the age of 109, having outlived her husband by 47 years. She lived to see presidents from Theodore Roosevelt to Donald Trump. The Wright Brothers had made their first powered flight only a few years before her birth; she saw men walk on the Moon and lived another forty-eight years after that! The population of the world nearly quadrupled during her long life.
The year of her birth saw the founding of UPS, the maiden voyage of HMS Lusitania, the beginning of the Great White Fleet's circumnavigation of the globe, and the invention of the Hoover vacuum cleaner.
