We need more stories on 70 and 80-year-olds they have different concerns and problems. I am a very healthy almost 89-year-old woman and thankful for that but others need to tell their stories not me right now.! Thank you for listening.

He is challenging, inspiring and fun, and now I even have my husband joining me for Zoom classes.

At his age and with his pre-athletic story, he is an inspiration .
His dedication and being responsible for his granddaughters athletic ability are newsworthy. He is such a possitive example not only to his family but all who wish to follow his example.

And to their college alumni publications, if applicable. The more coverage they get, the more interviews they do, the more exposure for Senior Planet.

I need even more motivation to get past the chronic aches that I wake with each morning.
