Gil Beorn at 97 still amazing, says Laura




























Gil Beorn, retired BJ mailer who now lives in Peoria, Arizona, is still an amazing guy, according to daughter Laura who sent these three photos to surprise him the next time he calls up the blog.

Beorn, 97, still walks at least once a day, she reports, and until about a year ago he was still riding a bicycle. “And, a couple of years ago he could still beat any of us at bowling.” Laura writes. “Out of about 10 of us ranging from 13 to 60, he beat all of us.”

Gil and wife Opal will celebrate their 66th wedding anniversary in August. One photo show the couple witth their children. The other photos are from 1971 in the BJ mail room. Son David is also in one of those photos.
