Reg Dean, the oldest Vegetarian in U.K. has passed away at 110.

The oldest man in the United Kingdom passed away yesterday, he was 110 years and 63 days old. The newspapers report he was a strict vegetarian (don't know if the term strict is used to indicate a vegan diet as often happens).
He was a teacher and a minister of the United Reformed Church and a teacher.
It was in the news that he used to say that his secrets of longevity were the vegetarian diet, his love for gin and a mysterious elixir of life that he received from a doctor while he was an army chaplain in India.
Rest in peace, and thanks for being an excellent advocate of the vegetarian lifestyle!
