TWIT would like to wish Miss Susie Mushatt a very happy birthday. Yesterday, Miss Susie turned 115 yeras old. Yep, 115 years old.
Miss Susie's niece said she never smoked or drank alcohol, but when it came to her diet she was not exactly healthy."Miss Susie loves her gum, Miss Susie loves her barbeque chicken, Miss Susie loves her bacon and if you take any of the three away you will be told off," said Taheera Mushatt, Miss Susie's niece.
Miss Susie was married, but not for long which she says may be the secret to a long life
"When somebody asks her that she says, 'Well, I didn't have husband,' she had a husband for five years and didn't have any children," Lavilla Mushatt said.
But with more than 100 nieces and nephews, she loves them like they're her own. Her family says she believes education is the key to success.
"She told my niece, "You going to school? That's good, get all the education you can get," said Sclbrea Mushatt, Miss Susie's niece.
Her legacy continues with baby Susannah who is named after her great great aunt.
She also set up a college scholarship fund for African-American students at her high school.
She didn't want to speak at the birthday party, her only wish was to go back upstairs and take a nap!
And at 115 years old, she most definitely deserves a nap.
