See The Oldest Twins (100 Years) Who Still Tavel The World Together by zyonnista(f): 6:58am On Apr 29, 2016
WoW..me I am just shocked beyond words , how these two made it to still be together . it's just God o..nothing else. No jazz can still be effective for as much as 100years ,lol.
Please meet Mary Belle Roach and Mae Belle Powell, better known as "The Wallace Twins" — a nickname, they derived for themselves based on their maiden names, which has stuck over the years.

According to Today News, These adventurous, life-loving centenarians have lived through some of the country's most challenging and exciting times.
And what makes their journey through life so inspiring is not only the memories the two have created, but also the inseparable bond they've formed with one another.

The twins were born during World War I on March 25, 1916 in Symsonia, Kentucky, where they live today. They were teenagers when the Great Depression shook the country. "It was really bad, we had nothing," Roach told TODAY. "The only monthly expense was home insurance."

After graduating from college, the duo married best friends they had grown up with,
, and accepted teaching jobs at Symsonia Elementary School. "You want to know what my salary was?" Powell, the older twin, asked over the phone. "It was $1 a day."

After returning from the war, the twins bought motor homes with their husbands and traveled the country together. These spontaneous ladies have now visited all 50 states and eight countries in Europe — not to mention taking six cruises together.


Today at 100 years old, nothing is slowing down this dynamic duo. And although both of their spouses have passed on, the twins are all about "go, go, go," according to Roach. The two walk for 30 minutes each day at a nearby gym, and you'll find them at the hair salon every Friday, always dressed alike

"We're together all the time; we've never been separated," said Roach. "That's all we know: to love each other."
"I need her all the time," Powell added. "We've had a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful life and still have it."


May God keep us all to be over a 100 in love with our family .

Nice one. I'm positive a life of modesty and restraint helped them in achieving this feat.

In Nigeria, no light, no water, no fuel, no food, no road, no jobs..... no....no...no...plus no peace of mind courtesy BH, Fulani shitheads, cheating and nagging wives/girlfriends, irresponsible husbands/boyfriends and a thieving and licentious clergy.

It's a miracle we get to be 70 at all!
