I often wish I'd spend more time with Grandpa. Nana and I did things together, and she lived much longer and was quite active. Senior citizens are often alone, but have so much to share. Nana got out and kept busy, but that's not true of many as they get older. A day in a retirement community can be very rewarding, and can brighten the day for them. I like chatting with elders and asking them to share memories - how has the world changed during your life? can you remember your first date? Sharing memories helps both us and them stay connected.
