ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. — Ms. Senior California Jane Lindsey was crowned Ms. Senior America 1990 after playing a violin solo and outlining the “five action words” that guide her life.
The 68-year-old Santa Ana resident beat out contestants from 29 other states to win the title held by Josephine Huyghe, a 63-year-old roller skater.
The pageant was open to contestants at least 60 years old. Judges base their decision on interviews, evening gown and talent competitions, and inner beauty-philosophy of life.
Before winning the crown Thursday night, Lindsey played a violin solo of “Tea For Two” and gave an alliterative philosophy of life.
“Five action words describe my philosophy of life--looking, listening, learning, loving and living life with the expectation of the very best,” she said.
