Magdalen Herdegen was born in Germany before moving to the United States when she was 6 years old. She grew up facing adverse conditions, but she never let that stop her from living her life to the fullest. She married the love of her life at the age of 21, and that’s when she considered her life to have bloomed into something magnificent. Together, she and her late husband, Bendick Herdegen, would go on to have three daughters, three grandchildren and five great-grandchildren. Her advice for living a long life is to learn to fight and conquer the battles you face.
