Reply to comment by PhilipWaterford in My grandfather warned people that the Titanic would sink by Forged04

True, I heard stories about my great-great-grandfather catching Titanic when it was in Theaters way back in 1997. I can’t imagine anybody could have a grandfather that was alive back then.

In my case it was a great-grandmother (passed away in the 80's) who in 1912 had tea with a friend that was leaving for the States and died a few days later. She could still relate that story when she couldn't remember your name.

It’s a weak joke anyway - great story though. I had a great aunt with dementia. We were playing the game with a fuzzy tennis ball and Velcro mitts in a park. After two throws I always had to tell her how to play again. Really weirded out 7 year old me.
