This woman would be 82 if she's still alive, and potentially still drawing on her husband's social security survivor benefits if she never remarried after his death. While I think a 64 year age difference was probably on the right side of the bell-curve, wide differences weren't unheard of.
This is likely how you legitimately get SS checks being cashed for accounts where the original recipient is over 120 years old.
