New Jersey resident Agnes Fenton celebrated her 110th birthday on Saturday, where she shared the key to her long life span: sipping on some Miller High Life and Johnnie Walker.
Apparently she discovered the secret after a doctor’s visit way back when. After finding a benign tumor, the doc gave her some vital advice: to drink three Miller High Lifes every day. Since then she’s done just that, and added a shot of Johnnie Walker Blue Label to the mix, every single day.
Unfortunately these days, her appetite has depleted. According to NorthJersey.com:
Nurses stay with Agnes Fenton around the clock. Neighbors and firefighters check on her, as does 66-year-old Lamont Saunders of Teaneck, who has known Fenton his entire life and calls her “Aunt Aggie.” Fenton was a dear friend of Saunders’ late mother, and from Aunt Aggie, Saunders said he has learned “honesty and being true to yourself.”…
Since becoming a centenarian, Fenton’s been quite the Englewood celebrity. She’s received government proclamations, and birthday greetings from President Obama and Governor Christie. NVE Bank tossed its longtime customer a 107th birthday in conjunction with its own 125th anniversary celebration. Englewood has proclaimed Saturday “Agnes Fenton Day.” The city’s first Agnes Fenton Day was 10 years ago.
If there’s one thing we’d like to be recognized for, it’s this.
