SV: [AT] OT Pop's passing

[Mattias Kessén]

George, my thoughts are with you and your family.

And of course your and others posts reminded me of my greatgrandfather, he
was born 1892 and lived to be 101 years. Always sharp and up to date to he
hardly saw or heard anything the last years. Many happy memories.

/Mattias

George, I know it is not an easy thing, but do all you can to dwell on
the positives.  My Dad, 87, grew up behind horses & mules, wanted OFF
that farm and worked his way through a PhD from Purdue, and spent his
working life in developmental agriculture around the world.  Today he
has slipped into dementia. It is such a sad thing, watching your role
model waste away like this.
