Sullivan K "Keith" S Joined: Dec 2006 Northern Ohio ...	I retired 10 years ago, in July, at age 61 and 1/2. I started volunteering at my grand kids grade school library. Next year will be my 10th volunteering and and my last year volunteering as it will be the last year I will have a grandkid in grade school. It’s been enjoyable but I will be 73 then and I have a few more things that I want to do around the place. Although my 10 year old grand child wants me to come and work at the middle school library.
