It doesn’t matter who we are, we all have somebody that influences us in life. At times, it may be a close friend or a member of the family but at other times, it could be somebody that we never see in person and they may live thousands of miles away from us. These are the individuals that we typically see on television or on the silver screen and from a very young age, they do something that makes us remember them for the rest of our lives. Dick Van Dyke is one of those individuals.
Many of us remember Dick Van Dyke from Mary Poppins or another one of his movies but he is also known for his longevity. He recently turned 94 years old and was seen going out for a smoothie and groceries in Malibu. According to the daily mail, “At his age you would assume he would have an assistant or helper running around but no, he looks determined to do it all, and with a smile on his face.”
Eyewitnesses who saw him out that day had the following to say about him: “After he was done grocery shopping at Ralph’s, he paid a visit to the Vitamin Barn in Malibu and came out with some type of green juice, probably packed full of healthy fruits and veggies. He was sort of singing to himself as he walked out, it was cute.”

The protein smoothies from the Vitamin Barn seem to be popular among celebrities. Even Dick fan Dyke enjoys getting his smoothie.
Perhaps you remember that in 2013, he was pulled from a white jaguar XJ when it burst into flames. Surprisingly, he is still driving even down till this day. He now chooses to drive a silver infinity sedan.
Most of us would agree that age is only a number. He married his second wife, Arlene Silver in 2012 when she was 47 years old. In Parade magazine, he was quoted as saying that she was: “one of the smartest movies I’ve ever made. She’s very mature for her age, and I’m very immature for my age, so it’s about right!”
In 1984, his wife Margie Willett passed away. They had four children. The daily mail showed him out in Los Angeles at the opening of Feinstein’s At Vitello’s Supper Club back in June. He was using a cane in June but it seems as if he doesn’t need it any longer.
“I’m sure his years of dancing has helped him stay strong and fit,” an observer tells Daily Mail. “He’s obviously making sure he’s eating the right things. But most importantly, he looks happy, that may be key to his long life.”
Dick van Dyke may be 94 years old but it seems as if he still has a long way to go.
