Neither of my parents were drinkers, aside from the occasional night out, and pretty much none as they got older. My dad smoked unfiltered Kools when I was a kid, then switched to low tar/nicotine for many years, finally quitting in his early 60s.
Given that history, and the usual men dying early, I guess, to the extent I thought about it, that I always figured Dad would go first. Alas, Mom passed at 74 from cancer, but Dad made it to 93.
