Grandparents on dad's side lived into their 80s and died quick. Both worked their farm up until the end, but I was young (6 for one and 9 for the other)
Grandparents on mom's side lived into their late 90s, and traveled the world until they were 90. Grandpa had the worst physically with his back and stenosis, but grandma had a habit of having TIAs. Grandma was strong and bull headed (after her last TIA she made the nurses find someone to speak the 9 languages she remembered knowing, to make sure she still new 'em!). Both took a long time of slowing down, but all at home. No long hospital stays, etc.
