I’m the oldest left on my Moms Side. There’s some shady characters on my Dads side. I don’t keep up with them much. A young man asked me a few years ago if I wished I were 16 again. I said yes. when I was 16 in 1970. He looked offended at my answer. 68-72, pre wife years, were nothing but non stop fun for me.
