Nina Willis, believed to be Georgiaβs oldest living resident, just celebrated her 114th birthday surrounded by family and friends in Atlanta. Born in 1909 as one of 20 siblings, she and her younger sister Pecola, now 97, remain inseparable.
Pecola lovingly cares for Nina each day, calling her βmy pride and joy.β Their bond has carried them through a lifetime of memories, from their childhood on a Georgia farm to cheering for their beloved Atlanta Braves, who even sent Nina a special birthday card.
When asked about the secret to such a long life, the sisters keep it simple: treat people right and live with love. Ninaβs milestone is more than a birthday, it is a beautiful reminder of the strength of family, faith, and joy. π
