John and Elsa Bengel: We both began our 80th year in March. We just moved from the big house to a 2-bedroom condo with underground parking and an elevator surrounded by trees and green space. Our daughters and their families are both within 10 miles. A great blessing. Greetings to all our fellow long-lived colleagues. Sent from Gmail Mobile
Sounds like you got it together 😀. I am in Austin and my kids are out of state ☹️. 🙏 Sarah Sent from my iPhone

James Addington, John Cock and I were all born in December, 1938. I’m 85. I’ll leave it to them to disclose their age if they choose to do so. 😜 Randy Williams

Well Randy, as you know, you and I are the same age. It's a fantastic age to be, full of unexpected surprises & insights derived from negotiating the bumps in the road. Helping to raise a 6 year old granddaughter is only one of the surprises. James

A fantastic age indeed, James. Had I known it would be this good I might have tried to get here sooner. Yeh, probably not. Great to still be relatively productive. Randy

I am 84. Live in a cottage next door to my son Scott in Arroyo Grande, CA.. Son Patrick lives 13 miles away. Don't get to see son Barry as often, as he lives in Tulare. I agree with Randy. It's a great age. Jann McGuire On Sat, Apr 13, 2024 at 8:17 AM Randy Williams via OE < oe@lists.wedgeblade.net> wrote: > A fantastic age indeed, James.

You are set for a safe walk through this adventur of the other end of life on earth. Im celebrating 80th. Randy is staying w me, been here a year (he is retired and getting long drawn out divorce). Timely for me to realize I need to make residential adjustments. He wont be here forever, but he and Russ will be within close proximity. Walk in Peace.

Dear Ones on the Journey! I will be 86 in May and happy to be where I am on the Journey. It’s one of discovery, vulnerability, humor and presence. After Christmas while visiting with Bruce and Nancy in Vancouver BC, I experienced a “seizure” with no breakage or pain. My adult children and partners came to the rescue, my daughter Sandy moved in with me at my home at Songaia. I am so well supported by family and community. Some of these qualities look different than 20, 10, even 5 years ago, yet they still hold a life giving spirit for me. Sent with love and appreciation for you all. 💕🎶 Nancy
