Tomorrow marks the 99th anniversary of the end of World War I, the original reason for celebrating veterans at this time. I’ll be joining my dad today, a World War II veteran, for a remembrance service at his nursing home. At 97, he is no where near the oldest surviving veteran of that war, but given his ability to pull through medical issues, I would not be surprised if he some day earned the honor. The joke in our family is that when I’m 100, I’ll still be driving down to see him every weekend.
