Mrs. Bickelhaupt also enjoyed embroidering and crocheting, her granddaughter said. Mrs. Campagnano said she was not sure what her grandmother's secret to such a long life was, but said Mrs. Bickelhaup had been able to maintain her good health all her life until the past few years. A spokesperson at the Samaritan-Keep Home said Mrs. Bickelhaupt had attended the social functions in the facility for as long as she was able, and seemed to "really enjoy herself."
