She's 95, and Hillsboro's eldest resident, but she belies her age. Mrs. Jacob Goertz enjoys pleasures that might seem small by younger standards — a visit from family or a ride in the car with her son — but the smile on her face tells you these are real enjoyments for her. Having never been a hospital patient, she has an enviable health record. She looks frail and small, but the dynamo is blessed with good health and long life. She seems capable of going on indefinitely. That is fine — for she is a lovely little lady who wears her years with dignity and pride.
