Laverne Biser, 105, has traveled the world to witness the phenomenon – and what might be his final one will pass directly over his Texas house
Laverne Biser has traveled to several US states as well as a handful of foreign countries to gaze at and fawn over a dozen solar eclipses. But for what the 105-year-old retired engineer realizes may be his final one on 8 April, he won’t have to go far.
The total eclipse is expected to pass over his home in Fort Worth, Texas. And he has plans to soak in the occasion – what stands to be his 13th solar eclipse – with his daughter and granddaughter in nearby Plano.
