Florence Lacombe heads out to lunch Tuesday in downtown Lewiston. “I don’t eat out too much. But I was out today so I figured I would treat myself,” said Lacombe, who said she is “94 and two months.” Lacombe was born in Lewiston and worked 46 years for three different mills. “I’m going to have what my doctor does not want me to have,” she said. “A nice hamburger.” Daryn Slover/Sun Journal
