Over 70 and I Don't Mean MPH: Reflections on the Gift of Longevity

Written in a conversational tone with honesty and humor, this essay collection offers a compelling look at experiences and situations common to people over 70. Part inspiration and part how-to, the writings explore subjects such as choosing a burial or cremation plan, living in a body that requires high maintenance, and being typecast as one who can only eat bland foods. The personal essays expose with irony and humor the often overlooked details of the trials of aging, yet also provide a deeper understanding of the necessity of reinvention late in life.

Til Death or Dementia Do Us Part

In her compassionately written memoir, Marilyn Reynolds provides a detailed account of her husband's puzzling symptoms of Frontotemporal Dementia and of his gradual decline. This book will be helpful to many who have loved ones suffering from dementias of all types. Marilyn takes readers on a journey from the very early signs of the disease, through the emotional and practical adjustments required, changes to financial and living arrangements, etc., as her husband's disease progressed. It is written honestly and directly, and with courage.
