Twin girls celebrate 100 years! A century of life lived together

Celebrating 100 years is a really nice milestone in life, but if it's 2 twins it really becomes an exceptional event.

This is the story of Norm Matthews ed Edith Antonecci, born in Revere, Massachusetts. Two women who have always maintained a special bond and have always made sure to stick together.

The two women were raised by a single mother and their childhoods were carefree and uneventful. After high school, Norma became a hairdresser and Edith a nurse. When they got married, they decided not to separate and to live up to 3 cities away. Their bond was so strong that they always felt the need to see and hear each other. Practically, they ended up living close even when they were married.

The life of the centenary twins

They got married 3 months apart. Norma had 3 children but, sadly, he lost one at the age of 2. Edith had 2 children but fate was not kind to her at all. Her husband died in a car accident, one of her children died of cancer at the age of 4 and the other son lost it after falling ill with Alzheimer's.

When Edith's husband also passed away, the twins decided to move in together in Florida. Since then they have lived in a trailer, participate in city life and are inseparable.

For their 100th birthday, 50 people reached St. Petersburg wishing they could celebrate this unforgettable milestone together. The twins claim they were born together and want to die together.

Norma and Edith lived in symbiosis, always ready to help and listen to each other and fate wanted to reward them by making them reach the century happy and united. The twins have a unique telepathic connection in the world, they feel each other's pain, joy and sadness without saying a word. There are ties that not even fate and life's adversities can ever dissolve.
