Celia Will Always Be With MeWhen I got into the elevator at the medical lab the other day, I met two extremely frail elderly women each huddled and bundled in a wheelchair and both accompanied by caretakers. As we all began to chitchat (the elevator is the slowest one I have ever encountered), I found out that the invalids were 98 years old. I congratulated them for their longevity, but I did not want to converse any more with them because they seemed so pitiful.When I left the elevator, I reflected on Celia, our “adopted” mum who recently died at 101 years old. My wife and I had routinely spent quality custodial time with Celia, a British woman who was about the same age as the forlorn-looking women in the wheelchairs. But what a difference! Celia, regardless of her multiple ailments, was engaging and energetic, still able (at age 100) to revel in the birthday bash her son had provided for her at the Waikiki Elks Club.Celia used to spend hours with me on Sundays, reminiscing about her

We've all encountered at least one curmudgeon in our lifetime.😉😃   It would be greatly appreciated if someone could possibly provide me (and others) with a link to where I can read the article "A Few Good Grumps" by Jon Winokur, which appeared in the Nov-Dec 2003 issue of AARP magazine.   Thank you in advance!

@TainH955417  - not sure if you were directing your question to me or someone else.  However, I am single (I'll never marry again) and at the moment, not dating anyone exclusively.  Why do you ask?
