High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Ralph Waldo McBurney (October 3, 1902 July 8, 2009), usually known as Waldo, was said to be the oldest worker in the United States. Until a relatively short time before his death at age 106, he lived and worked as a beekeeper in the city of Quinter, Kansas. Although he was born in Quinter and had lived in the Quinter area for many years, he had also lived near the Kansas cities of Sterling and Beloit. In his last years, he was recognized nationwide for his longevity.He was the third of six children born to George R. and Mary B. (Huston) McBurney. After two years at Sterling College, he transferred to the Kansas State Agricultural College (now Kansas State University), from which he graduated in 1927. Two years later, he married the former Irene Spear; together, they had three children. After her death in 1960, he married the former Vernice Forman in 1962, twelve years younger than he; she is still living. He suffered a heart attack in 1994, but continued competing afterward. He died at the Gove County Medical Center in Quinter on July 8, 2009.
