All my grandparents died in their 80's, my parents are in ther 50's now, and I might have some relatives in Minnesota who are older, but I don't know much about that branch of my family.
 
My grandparents are in their late 70's, I used to have great-grandparents aswell and many of them became over a 100 years old, forest-finns, I guess the secret to longevity must be a diet of berries, fish, moose and home made vodka :p .
 
My Grans 70-80 ish, she merely celebrates her birthday, not her age so noone needs to know. livly as anyone, still is out gardening most of the time, lives on her own and is very self reliant.
 
I'm adopted, so I can't point to any blood relatives.

For what it's worth though, my father-in-law is 96 and his blushing bride (they just celebrated their 67th anniversary) is 89.

I pray that my wife and our marriage can last for similar timespans.
 
My grandmother is 88.
 
My family all died of old age. We aren't very prolific. ;)
 
My grandfather's aunt is in her nineties right now...

I think she was the only person on that side of my family who didn't smoke. Who would have imagined that she'd be the only one to live so long?
