Wow, everyone's grandparents are/were young.  My oldest grandparent was 75 when I was born Smiley

Dad's dad: died at 90 last year (heart failure)
Dad's mom: died at 80 in 2000 (pancreatic cancer)
Mom's dad: died at 82 in 1997 (stroke, which was fairly directly caused by smoking)
Mom's mom: alive at 90 (though she has been developing memory problems recently that are concordant with early-stage Alzheimer's)

In other words, my parents and I can all safely delay taking retirement and social security without fear that we won't have time to enjoy them Tongue (especially my mom!)

Dad's Dad: Died when my dad was 12(Got killed)
Dad's Mom: Still alive and is around 73, and doesn't show signs of dieing any time soon.

Wow, you have young grandparents on mom's side.  My parents just became grandparents at 58 and 53 and that was kinda of an accident due to my sister.
