I may have misspelled the legendary crooner's last name wrong but if you have read this far you may know of whom I write. If not his biggest hit was "I left my heart in Frisco."
He is 90 years old and cancelled a concert because of flu like symptoms. Mr. Bennett also served in armed forces during WWII.
At 90+ most things make you think about slowing down and I wish him well.
However, my father-in-law in 95+, raised on a farm in Southern Utah, served on the front lines during WWII, married, started his own business in 1946, raised a family of 8 children, still goes to work three days a week at the company he started 71 years ago (now managed by a grandson).
This is a bit of a physical job, requires him to move around and deliver milk cases to stores, restaurants and prisons. He also accompanies his grand son on long drives to deliver their products to national parks and recreation areas.
I admire this man right up there with my dad which is a pretty high standard. Way to go "POPS".
