As he nears 112, the oldest man in America still smokes 12 cigars a day, drinks whiskey and loves Dr Pepper. His secret to a long life? "Just keep living. Don't die." | @dallasnews https://t.co/X2lcE9hZUv
Happy 112th birthday to America’s oldest living man and WWII veteran, Richard Overton. Born in Bastrop County in 1906, Overton served in the South Pacific. He resides in his home in East Austin, where he enjoys cigars and drinking whiskey on his front porch. Photo c/o @statesman.
