Alice Miranda recently turned 103 years old, but her doctor says her blood work is that of a 20-year-old. Alice has lived at the Timbers of Shorewood retirement community for a decade. According to her daughter, Mary Ann Lehman, everyone at the Timbers knows Alice, loves her and says hi to her. “They keep her moving,” Lehman said. Born on January 18, 1916, in San Antonio, Texas, Alice was an only child raised by her mother. Her father died when she was only two years old. After high school, Alice married a research chemist, and the couple raised five children in Lockport, putting every one of them through college. Her husband died in his 50s, so Alice has been a widow for a long, long time. She isn’t lonely, however. She has 17 grandchildren, handfuls of great grandchildren and two great-great grandchildren. She never ate margarine, which she says is the secret to her long life. She also walked every single day, rarely ate red meat and devoured fresh vegetables. Alice is enjoying life at the Timbers, but she does get frustrated when she can’t remember things. However, her long-term memory is excellent. Lehman overheard her mother singing an unfamiliar song and discovered the song was from the 1930s. Alice knew every single word.
