Out of curiosity, here is a list of what comes to mind and bit of research. The idea is to correct it and keep it somewhat updated.
Also credits to @Captbony1999 who recently wrote a post about this.

Note that the main source is Wikipedia/other forums so dates could not be 100% reliable.

Would appreciate any corrections or additions to the list, as my LCN knowledge may not be as extensive as the rest of you. This is my first post.

From what it seems, the Genovese have the largest number of long-lasting members (90+). Surely, this is not a coincidence.

Gambino names added. Not as long-living but there are some old-timers still alive and kickin'.
Also included some other genovese guys such as Vincent Alo and the major bosses of each family in blue.

Thanks for the answers. I'll add the names once I get to each family.
Want to end with the five families first.

Some of these guys should be contacted for an autograph. I would pay to receive their addresses. I mentioned on another thread I sent letter to Senter and Testa, Basciano and someone else, I didn't hear back.

Lucchese names added.

Very interesting the name of Paolo D'Anna.
Apparently, Al D'Arco mentions him in his book due to a meeting that took place at D'Anna's home in 1988 when he still was alive.

Until now just knew of Sonny Franzese and James Lanza dying 100+.
