Ways to describe an old person:

Her gray hair was coarse and thin, she had wrinkles on her face and hands with age spots, she was dressed in an outfit that was out of fashion today. Her body was stooped with arthritis and she sounded cranky when she talked but acted angry at not being able to remember events that had occurred.

I hope this helps you.
