Now, with the passing of Martin we don’t believe there are any other name singers going back to the 30s.   Tony Bennett might be the oldest and he’s a baby at 85.

DEPRESSION -My 95-year-old father recently told me  that his mother (my grandmother) had always been depressed throughout her life until her husband passed away in 1950.

GROWING OLD with  PETS -It’s nice to share real-life experiences with my pets.. Now Weepy, my 111-year-old male cat and myself are competing to see who loses the most teeth. Weepy just had seven taken out and with my one of my own coming out last week I’m closing in with SIX!
