Reynolds Tomter says the secret to reaching his age is being with friends and drinking lots of coffee.
PIGEON FALLS, Wis. – Coffee, balloons and friends set the scene as people gathered to celebrate a WWII veteran’s 105th birthday., and is an avid Packers fan.
Tomter was excited to celebrate his birthday at his favorite local restaurant, My Second Home Bar & Grill. “It is something I’ll never ever forget,” Tomter said. “It’s unreal. This is what you call a small-town gathering.”“Everybody waits on me and comes and greets me with good things to say,” he explained. “So, don’t be afraid, anyone, to get to be real old.”“He said, when my mom passed, he could have been depressed, but he just made up his mind to get out, go to his car every day,” Warner said. “He didn’t know where he was going, but he’d go somewhere for coffee.
He encourages the younger generation to get active in the community to help make the world a pleasant place to live.“I always say he is absolutely positive about everything - unless the Packers are losing, that’s the only time I ever hear him say anything negative,” Warner said.Copyright 2022 WEAU via Gray Media Group, Inc.
