WASHINGTON (AP) — John McCain's rebellious streak didn't come out of
nowhere. His mother, Roberta, had a habit of speeding behind the wheel
and racking up tickets. When told during a trip to Europe that she was
too old to rent a car, she went out and bought a Peugeot. Her son once
answered the telephone to hear his mother say she was on a cross-country
driving trip — by herself, in her 90s.
Now 106, the wife and
mother of Navy admirals lived a life of full of travel and adventure,
punctuated by her sass and determination.
