If I can be just like my Daddy, who passed away 3 years ago at 94, I will be happy to stay around. This man was incredible, he was blind because of mac degeneration but it never stopped him from doing anything. He still played golf, pinochle, bingo, danced all the time with the ladies, and had a tremendous thirst for life and learning. He mastered the computer in his 80's, has a DVD, VCR, computer, printer, speakers to hear Sinatra, a TV set that also was a computer monitor and he knew how to toggle back and forth, and he loved every breathing minute of life. He drank a glass (or two) of red wine every day with dinner and sometimes had a bourbon.. LOL.
Upon going into the operating room for a heart operation (which eventually took his life), he was telling all the docs and nurses about Okinawa and WWII and recollected about everything in his life that he loved.
If I'm feeling that good,,, yes,,, I'll hang around.
Miss you Pops!!!
