Particularly with a widower of that age one can wonder about his neurological and/or psychiatric status.I understand why neighbors want tidy yards (for property values purposes) but I'll wager that there was another way to handle this.For example,they could have hired a service to clean the yard and put that bill as a lien on the house.

According to the article people are trying to help him out. They donated money for the fine and are helping to put up a privacy fence. The neighbors did not complain. He was cited by code compliance. There is also some information about Ramsey’s past that wouldn’t look good in the headline.

Ageist much? I have met quite a few octogenarians and nonagenarians who, given the ill-considered nature of your comment, are probably quite a bit sharper than you are.
