Arthritic nun rides aid scooter through Kenton nursing homes
Sister Agnes Zita aged 68, a Cedar Grove Indiana native, tours Kenton Ohio nursing homes on a yellow battery scooter. Arthritis forced her to switch from walking in 1973, after parishioners raised $700 for a scooter. Weighing 53 pounds plus battery and lasting about four hours, she operates it with ease and has become a fixture, earning Citizen of the Year honors and a governor's award for community action.
