These 100-year-old great-grans have been best friends for 71 years

Meet Grandma Lil and Grandma Jane – they’ve been friends for an incredible 71 years. They met in 1945 when they were neighbours and have been pals ever since.

Grandma Lil’s granddaughter, Kamari Copeland, posted a heart-warming video of the two old friends together, and the adorable exchange has since captured the hearts of the internet.

Jane is 102 and Lil is turning 100 next month, but as the video shows they’re still having the time of their lives together. In the clip, Copeland's mother, Alva, can be heard telling the ladies they're "fabulous." The lifelong friends response is simply, "We know it. We can't help it!"

We hope we can have such great friends by our sides when we reach 100!
