This is a hoot, and she's a pretty and spry as the day is long...dunno, maybe something to it, but I just love her story!

Wow...she's as sharp as a tack! I should be that sharp. :) You can tell by her laughter and vivacious manner that's a main reason why she has lived for so long. She seems like a genuinely happy person! And...she's a very cute little lady!

Haha! Well, she's cute, but do you really want to be known as a "snake oil salesman"???

Miss Wilma, don't delay in asking your momma and daddy about your name while you still can. I asked about my weird name and got the answer, but never thought to ask about my middle name, Louise. I remember my dad whistling the song "Louise" when I was a kid. I have the sheet music "somewhere safe", will have to go find it and see when it was published. I have one aunt left who was friends with mother since grade school and have to ask her questions while she's still with us.
That video was great, what a super personality that lady has and still so sharp. Thanks for sharing.

Any NC farmgirls have an interest in being a shopkeeper?

Isn't she a hoot?! I just loved where she found the recipe...in that old family bible! She sure didn't look 101 did she--how pretty her skin was, golly.

Miss Wilma, as adorable as she is, you might just well be named after her!!!

She is just too cute. Her laugh is infectious!
I looked up the Dunrovin Country Store on the Internet and it is up for sale!! Only $450,000, inventory sold separately. I hope the new owners keep selling Wilma's Snake Oil!
