Aging Well

Original Airdate: January 17, 2006
In this edition of NH Outlook's continuing series Seeing Seniors, we look at aging well. Former Portsmouth Mayor Eileen Foley is aging well at 88 and is out with her second book. She joins Outlook host Beth Carroll in-studio to talk about "Again, the Pleasure is all Mine". The book is a compilation of stories she has written for the monthly newsletter for the Community Council of Senior Citizens. Scheduled to appear in-studio: Zane Knoy, gerontologist and author of Aging for Dummies and Rose Arthur, Executive Director of the RISE program at Rivier College. Also in this program: Yardley Chittick is 105 years old. But, "old" isn't what comes to mind when you meet this vibrant and engaged centegenarian. He was 19 during Prohibition, 38 during the Hurricane of 1938. And he practiced patent law into his 80's. Outlook's Chip Neal visits with Chittick at his retirement home in Concord.
