The Oldest Person I Know...
I have all kinds of family members that are extremely old, but I am not really close to them. The oldest people that I knew which were my grandparents, have already passed away. So the oldest, living person that I know and truly love would have to be my Uncle Alfonso. He is my dads oldest brother. My uncle is 76 years old. He is a very inspirational person because he has been through many rough patches in his life. He is a husband and father of thirteen children. His life has always been a struggle because in Mexico he always had to be helping out my grandfather and he always had to take care of his ten other siblings. Then, when he came to the Unites States, it was to be working in the fields and send all the money back to his parents and wife and children. I rarely see him now because he lives in San Fernando Valley. It pleases me to know that he is still extremely limber and super energetic. Whenever I see him at a party, he is still dancing and singing, pretty much the life of the party!
