Bea Abrams Cohen said it's all about "mitzvah", which means an act of human kindness or a good deed, as she sought to explain one possible secret to her longevity. Cohen, age 102, has spent a lifetime giving back to the community.
84-year-old World War II veteran Stephen Rosmarin, who has known Cohen for more than six decades says Bea has always been a giver, been doing great work and hasn't stopped. The centenarian's dream is to meet First Lady Michelle Obama to thank her for helping to support our veterans.
