Your story brought me to tears. You write with such compassion and understanding of your tour passengers. I can relate to Bill going from one restaurant to another as that is something Jack would do now. His short term memory loss is slowly getting worse. A Merry Christmas to you and Liz, and wishes for a very Happy New Year. Genie

Well done Michael. A difficult tale to tell to be sure. Told with compassion and insight I wish many others had. Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year to you.

What a beautiful and brave man Bill is. A sorry that at our stage of life we can relate to as the fog of age descends. I'm still wiping tears away. If only we can continue to 'seize the day' in such a way ourselves.

Thanks once again Michael for moving our hearts with stories.
