For those of you who still have grandparents alive! How old are you?

[Justsotirednow]

Or how old were you when they passed?

I was 16 when my granparents from mom’s side died.

And somewhere in my 20’s when from dad’s side passed.
Although we weren’t in touch at all, not sure why.

I don’t know why I ask, I guess I just realised that I wasn’t around older generation much.

My great grandmother died when I was 11 and we used to visit her about once a month. All other great grandparents of mine had died before I was born.

My nan died last year at 90, I was 37.
My grandad (her husband) died when he was 72 and I was 17.

My other nan died when she was 36 and it was about 30 years before I was born.
My other grandad (her husband) died when he was 94 and I was in my late 20s.

My DD met 3 of her great-grandparents too.

I am 38 and I have 3 still alive.
That said, my mother had me when she was 16.

2 still alive when I was born, they died when I was 6 and 13. I am now 36. People are living longer generally, my kids have 5 grandparents and 2 greats.

Mine had all died by the time i was 18, they were only 60s/70s when thet died, one died before i was born

I was 50 when my last remaining grandparent died. I was 3 months old when the first one died, 20 when the second died and 37 when the third died.

Maternal Grandma in late 80s.

Im 46.

I had 3 of my grandparents at my wedding when I was 28, which many friends told me afterwards was pretty amazing to them, having lost most if not all of their grandparents by that age.

I’m 38 now and both my grandmothers are still alive. One sadly has Alzheimer’s (88) but the other (93) is still going strong both mentally and physically.

Sadly my DC only have one grandma on one side and one grandad on the other side, which makes me feel like they’re missing out on so much. Well, we all are.

All my GPs died by the time I was 14.
dh’s grandma lived until he was 33, she was in her late 90s.
I know someone in their late 40s with a living GP.

My last grandparent died when i was 33, she lived very long though, 98. One had died at about 90 when I was 31. Another died when i was about 26, i think at about age 81.

One had died much earlier, prematurely, a good 15 or so years before i was born.

I am 40 and have 2 grandparents alive in their 70s. This time last year I had 3 grandparents and a great grandparent alive.

39 and two surviving grandmothers who are 80 and 82.

my last two grandparents died when I was 32 the other two died when I was in my teens, they were all in their 80s and 90s when they passed

I lost my grandparents at 29, 32, 35 and 37.
DH is 43 and he still has 2 grandparents on his dads side. His grandmother on his mums side died last year at 92.

Grandparents all died before I was 13. Father died at 25. Mother died at 40. 🙁

I'm in my very late 40s and just lost my last grandparent. Until about 3 years ago I still have three grandparents living.

By the time I was 16 years old, all grandparents and my mum had gon

Paternal grandfather died at 60 6 years before I was born. Maternal grandfather died when I was 25 and Paternal grandmother when I was 31.

My maternal grandmother is 83 and step grandfather is 73 and both are still going strong.

How wonderful!

I'm 45 and still have both my Grandmother's. My Dad's Mom will be 100 in May.

My dad was my grandparents 11th child and they were already in their 40s when he was born, they died when I was 13.

My mum's mother died when I was 30.

I'm 39 now and my last remaining grandparent, my mum's father, is 84.

My mother's, Mother & Father are both still alive. In their mid 80s and I'm 33.

My father's Mother died when he was only 18, so I sadly didn't get to meet her. He's Father died when I was 20. I knew him best.

44
My grandma is 102!

I'm 50 and I have a grandmother. I know I'm very lucky. She is fantastic, looks much younger than her 95 years and I love hearing her stories about the past.

2 died before I was born, 1 when I was 10 days old, and the last 3 months before I was 3. I still remember him.

I'm 34 with one grandparent (dad's mom) still alive - she's 81.

All 4 grandparents plus 3 great grandparents were alive when I was born. My great grandparents died relatively close together when I was 6-7, my 3 late grandparents died when I was 7, 17 and 21
