I think that's it. I have to say I didn't hang around for all the conversations..I had work to do and I had to use my cell while he was in my office, but I will say that most people just barely listened to him and didn't even take his name. BTW....my bad.....he's 92, not 85.
Awesome story DD! Thanks for sharing and being so kind to the gentleman. You earned a gold star.
DD, my love for you has grown to magnitudes unheard of! I worked Geriatrics for a lot of years and I was he one who listened to the grumpy old men and women rant. I love them with all my heart! Funny thing is, those old people were our age once and some that I knew invented things like compressors used by NASA now and products used in grooming and such!
I am so glad you let him make the calls and I pray like crazy that just one of the right people heard his words. Why not let him write a letter and mass mail it or even e mail it to all of those same people. Also send it to local news networks and radio stations there and even here in Sowal. Just a thought.

I asked him today if he wanted to send out emails and volunteered to let him dictate to me, but he said "no, dammit, I wanna talk to them in person". I may try to convince him to compose something though.
Just read this DD!! 
92 and a Delight! Probably not always a delight, right? I've been so fortunate to have wonderful older people in my life with passion like this gentleman. It teaches me so much!!
I'll volunteer, DD, to help type out his letters or I can print and mail them from Atlanta. Thank you for keeping us posted!! ;-)
