DennisLinkletter Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 Re: Happy 96th Birthday Grandpa Dennis, Saw Grandpa Art's birthday posted in the AJC yesterday. Hope he had a wonderful day!! Yes, 96! I actually just got off the phone with him and brought him up to date with what's going on with my move to Bali and my kids.(who yes, say the darnedest things;-) Both he and my grandmother had been fortunate to have great health. She's 94 and we are trying to get her to stop driving. About 5 months ago Art was still going to the office everyday at 9 and home at 3. He then had a stroke which has slowed him down but his mind is still as sharp as ever. I will be seeing him for the annual family reunion scheduled for late September. Here is a youtube with him I was just sent today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Im58XcqDu9M&feature=related
johnnyboy Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 That's awesome, Dennis. You can't beat that! Let's just hope some of those genes were passed to you. I would have never guessed you were related to Art Linkletter; I used to watch him as a kid.
mguerra Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 That was a great video! I almost forgot we used to actually talk about God openly in our public discourse. I watched Art Linkletter as a kid and enjoyed him immensely. You are so lucky and blessed to have him as your grandfather!
primeats Posted July 19, 2008 Report Posted July 19, 2008 Happy Birthday to Mr. L.! fantastic video, I remember watching these growing up.
