When I can understand the words, she is usually telling my Dad to, "Get away from there. Leave the mirror alone", or other things. She has me check for fingerprints on the mirror. They talk sometimes.

Maybe because today, 8/31, is their 71st wedding anniversary. They started dating in junior high and never dated anyone else. She was 18 when they married.

What a lovely couple they were! 71 years would have been a good long time for anyone!
