This is the third year for “Prime Time,” and do we ever have beautiful, handsome, and fun people in the issue—ranging from 62 to 93 years old. These Omaha people are stylish, active, and living life to the fullest.

When we get older we have stories to tell and have lived interesting lives. We’ve known love, suffered losses, and had successes and failures. We remember the past but look to the future. It has been amazing to work on this each year, as it gives me the chance to meet new people and renew friendships.

We at Omaha Magazine want to thank all the participating models, and hope you had as much fun with this special edition as we did. Thanks to my granddaughter (Tyler’s daughter) Sarah Lemke, who photographed everyone shown.

I say this each year, but it is worth repeating: I do believe that 80s are the new 60s, and 60 is the new 40.

Just take a look!

You can see additional pictures from this year’s photo shoots on our website, omahamagazine.com.

These bonus photos include Marian Leary with her bright blue eyes, still driving in her snazzy blue convertible; Edwin Jochim, who is still working, standing on his monstrous Caterpillar; and the Kerrs with the city of Omaha’s big “O” that Tom designed. There are great additional photos of everyone.
