While that might have been true once, I'm going to bet that it might not be true now. When I looked it up on White Pages dot com, it said it was a Google Voice number. Now while not impossible, just getting to the age of 97 is still pretty remarkable. Being 97 and having a Google Voice number seems to stretch reasonable odds to me.
Not to mention that when I've done searches like this in the past, I'm pretty sure I've come across people that I'm pretty sure were dead as the search listed them at extremely unlikely ages like 105. My take on that was that once you entered a database like that, unless you are specifically taken out, it increases your age yearly whether you are dead or not.
