A healthy diet and getting enough rest is good advice for people of all ages. For two Sun City residents who are beginning their second century of living, they're just part of what keeps them ticking.

Amelia Krapfs Williams and Hazel Burger also include playing the piano, taking tennis and tap dance lessons, working puzzles, painting, dancing and reading.

Williams lives with her daughter and son-in-law, Janet and John Garnjost. She will be 101 in September.

"I don't feel 100," Williams said. "I don't act it."

The former Latin andGerman language teacher said her mother taught her to do all things in moderation.

"I think I'm still going because of my diet, keeping active, enjoying life. I did play tennis. I would say that's pretty good," she said. She enjoys fruit and milk. "I like variety. I like my sweets."

The daughter of a Lutheran minister who moved his family to serve at different churches, Williams enjoyed living by the seashore when they lived inAtlantic City. By the time she was in high school, the family had moved to Pittston,Pa., not far from Hershey where she was born.

That neighbor boy

The one thing that stood out in her memory was being able to see the home of a neighbor boy outside her back door across the cemetery. Soon they began dating.

"My mother didn't like that so much,"Williams said with a twinkle. "He worked at the Vulcan IronWorks. My mother sent me off to Susquehanna College to become a teacher."
