Fifth oldest person in the world dies

The oldest person living in the state of Massachusetts has died at the age of 115.  Bernice Emerson Madigan was the fifth oldest person in the world, she was born in Springfield in 1899 and moved to Cheshire Massachusetts in 1906.  Madigan got a job at the U.S. treasury and moved to silver spring, Maryland where she lived most of her life until 2007 when she moved back to Cheshire.  Her husband died in 1976, they had no children.  many people would ask her what she does to keep healthy and stay alive that long.  She says she always has a positive attitude.  She would eat a good healthy breakfast every morning and the most surprising one to me is a glass of wine every day.  One hundred and fifteen years is a long time to live and it seems pretty much impossible.  Bernice lived through three different centuries which only a very few people have ever been able to physically do.
