WANDA MULLINS Health Park residents Filomena Scholto and Pollie Reamer (l to r) are both over 100 years old and in fairly good health.

Two ladies who have resided at Health Park Rehabilitation & Care Center have hit the jackpot of life.

Pauline (Pollie) Reamer turned 100 years old on July 3, 2011, and Filomena Scholto turned 101 last Friday, July 22, 2011.

Pollie, originally from Peoria, Ill, has been a patient at Health Park for 2 ½ years. Scholto, originally from Brooklyn, N.Y., has been at Health Park for six years.

Both ladies credit their good health to eating a lot of strawberries and lots of fruits and vegetables as well as reading and laughing. They say that Health Park has been very good to them and they receive anything they want to eat and almost anything they want to drink.
