Thank you, I’m fine. At this time I drive between two homes 19 hours apart. Golf cart works fine too (now that I use the kill switch to spare the battery). But my aunt at 78 was not fine. She could not do everything needed after her husband died. What she needed was public transportation to do many things; go shopping, go to doctor appointments, go for entertainment… in other words, what people do everyday. She had to sell the house she lived in for 32 years and go into independent living. She had to leave her activities and her friends she could just drop in with.

Don’t kid yourself because you can drive now. You’re going to need this service if you stay here. Especially if your spouse should pass away before you. Why do you think there is public transportation, pretty well everywhere in the world?
