Call me crazy, but I don’t want to retire, I just want to get paid so I can continue loving doing what I do and making a difference. Its called being shown some respect, and getting some dignity and self respect back that was lost. It isn’t as difficult as people make it out to be. I mean what I say.
Congratulations Ms Betty you are a trooper & a pretty woman as well!

Ms. Betty Reid Soskin retires at 100 as a park ranger. And she was 85 years old when she began. And after serving her whole life as a civil rights activist and public servant. A beautiful life, a beautiful person. God bless her.
I've never seen 100 look so young! She looks like a well- preserved 70. Her gait! Her service! I'm amazed 👏🏽

100 years old, no way, she seems in the same age like my grandmother who's only 75

Proud of you mam..
I have NO words . Just complete AWE and RESPECT .
I sense an amazing bio-pic in the future….. what a great story her life would make.
She looks damn healthy for 100!
100?! She doesn’t even look close to that age. It’s incredible
I'm blown away by Mrs. Soskin's tenacity. Without taking away from any other group, I think there's nothing more beautiful than recognizing the contribution of strong women of color who have witnessed, endured, and continue to shape this imperfect world for the betterment of those inspired by and aspire to follow in their footsteps.
Congratulation
All my love
She’s 100 years old, she hasn’t been working for 100 years. Lol @the reporter.
Salute to this awesome woman and a treasure for our country! ❤️
I love you
Way to go Betty!
Amazing how much life this beautiful woman got to live and continues to live. 😭
What a woman
100?! She doesn’t even look close to that age. It’s incredible
She didn’t work for 100 years 🙄. If I understood correctly, she worked at the park for 15 (?) years and gas previously worked at a factory during WWII. They did not provide any other details about her work history or family life…
What a woman, people such as her are who we should look up to.
She’s beautiful!
Wow such great genes 🧬 she's beautiful.
Congratulations ! 🎉🎈 On Your Retirement Have A Blast Retirement
