97-year-old WWII veteran proud to still be working at New Jersey grocery store

While many people look forward to retiring, a 97-year-old man from New Jersey looks forward to working and proves that age is just a number.

Bartholomew Ficeto, a World War II veteran, still works twice a week bagging groceries at a Stop and Shop in Edison.

He is very proud of his years and doesn't even like to take the 15-minute breaks he is entitled to. To him, his age is a fact -- not a factor.

Ficeto has been a part of the Stop and Shop family for nearly 10 years.
