Early mortality in my family? What gives you that idea.

My father died when he was 79 and my mother when she was 80.

That's what gave me the "idea."
My great grandfather is 103. My grandparents all over 84. My father is only 66.
My mother died young, but not from natural causes. The average lifespan in my
family over 120 years of known history is 96!
I win again!
