Edward Kydd shows us that it’s never too late to do something good.

He’s traveled more than 13,000 miles and put in 1,700 hours of service for Meals on Wheels. Those numbers will continue to grow because even at age 101 he’s still an active volunteer with the senior meal program.

He says the reason he’ll turn 102 in July is because he’s stayed active.
