People say that an important way to age gracefully is to stay active as long as possible. This is one of many attributes that describes Toni Vaz! A famous proverb says: "All the days of the afflicted one are bad, but the one with a cheerful heart has a continual feast." It means if you see everything negatively, you will feel "afflicted" and every day will appear "bad," or gloomy. But if you focus on positive things, you will have "a cheerful heart" and even feel joyful. Your dear one, Toni Vaz, was not satisfied with just doing the status quo! She accomplished a lot - 101 years young! Thank you to the family of Toni Vaz for sharing her with us. Her positive attitude is contagious.
