Aging On His Own Terms

Spent a few hours with my great uncle yesterday. He’s 96 1/2 and just as sharp as he was when I saw him a month ago. Wow.

Talking to him is fun because I always come away with some new nugget–something about WWII (which he was in), or a piece of family info I hadn’t known. Sometimes he just cracks me up with the things he says. When he cracks himself up, it’s even better.
