Dolores Hope dies.

Dolores Hope, who was married to Bob Hope for 69 years, has died at the age of 102.

Bob Hope died in 2003 at the age of 100. What an amazing age they both reached...

Re: Dolores Hope dies.

They both lived to be great ages, it must have something to do with their sense of humour, although I wouldn't like to live to be 100, no way.

Re: Dolores Hope dies.

I agree with you about their sense of humour Jem, they were a very well suited couple.

I don't think I'd like to live to 100 either ..... too many aches and pains now and hate to think what it would be like then...

I was reading the obit in today's paper; a great age for both. If I didn't have many more aches and pains than now, think I'd like to make 100 .....

Re: Dolores Hope dies.

I don't think age matters as long as you stay reasonably healthy. My parents lived to 92 and 96 respectively and apart from the last six months or so of their lives were in good shape. I will be more than happy if I can do the same although getting pains and stiffness in my legs now and I'm only 57
