When I first wrote about our OCTOGENARIANS, we had four. Today we have nine!<\/p>\n

“Octogenarian: Someone in his or her eighties, or in other words, between 80 and 89 years of age.”<\/p>\n

Now that is a big word, and one that we don\u2019t use in our every day speech, but a person that has lived for such a wonderful length of time deserves to have a special word to describe them.<\/p>\n

The Chilton County Master Gardeners Association is blessed to have nine members that are Octogenarians. And along with this descriptive word comes a bonus of having a Lifetime Membership in CCMGA.<\/p>\n

E.C. Lewis was one of the founding members of the Association and joined in 1999. Lindy Helton became a member in 2000, Charlotte Word in 2009, Margaret Goolsby in 2006, Peggy Harris in 2008, Margaret Ennis in 2007, JoAn Davis in 1997, Wayne Freeman in 2002, and Bettye Glass joined in 2011. We LOVE our OCTOGENARIANS!<\/p>\n
