The story of Olga Marsten Howet is a wonderful illustration of how age really is just a number and how a young, vibrant spirit can transcend the years. Despite her advanced age of 103, Olga continues to live her life fully and joyfully.

Her participation in the grad parade of her former school in Dakkota, especially on her birthday, was a defining moment for her. Not only did it remind him of his own school days and his graduation at the age of seventeen, but it also allowed him to reconnect with his native school which for ten years had become his second home.

Olga’s presence leading the parade of graduates demonstrates the respect and recognition that the school and the community have for her. His invitation to lead the parade was more than just a token gesture – it was an acknowledgment of his role in the community and a celebration of his longevity.

Also, having her sons and grandchildren by her side on this special day is testament to the love and support she receives from her family. It is a reminder of the importance of the family bond and the importance of cherishing and celebrating our elders.

Olga is an inspiring example for all of us — showing that one can live a rich and satisfying life at any age. She reminds us that youth is not a matter of age, but a matter of spirit, and that with a positive attitude and a joyful spirit, each day can be lived to its fullest, no matter how many years old we are. .
