We have decided for our next visit we need to practice a few old Eddie Arnold tunes.

| Dad and Mom are in this photo. Mom has Alzheimer's, and knows only dad. |

| Dad cannot form his own words, but by rote he can sing songs he knows, repeat prayers he knows and smile at everyone he knows. In this photo he is singing, "...a partridge in a pear tree." Well, apparently he knows that song, so we sang it in July. When we sing his favorite old hymns, he can belt out the tune. It is lovely to hear his voice. |
