Yes, I know I’m fortunate indeed. He is a fine man and still pretty sharp for 91. Went to Sunday School with him this morning. I work with him most days.

He still lives alone (mom has been gone almost 4 years). He has a lady that spends 1/2 day 5 days a week helping him. She washes his clothes, fixes his meals, cleans his house, takes care of his medicine.

He is happiest when he is involved in the farm, particularly when we build something. It was the thing he loved the most. He was a general building contractor for many many years. Did some amazing work.

My wife still has her father and he is about that age as well. He still drives, but not very often. Took himself off the road just recently, which I thought would kill him, but he is adapting very nicely. Of course his girlfriend lives across the road, so that helps and she is probably 20-30 years younger than he is. So she can still drive and he goes over to her house and eats. He has a woman come in once a week to clean his house, but he does his own laundry.

His only real problem is his eyesight, and it prohibits him from doing his little build projects that he desperately misses. I'm almost convinced he will outlive me. 8>)
