A Portrait of Bill Luecking
Bob Barclif
My name is Bill. Alzheimer's Think Tank has been helpful to me with regards to music education and photography instruction, but also with regards to fellowship with colleagues experiencing the consequences of memory loss and how others besides myself are dealing with it. The previous class in Music Appreciation encouraged me to deepen my long term interest in music not only because of the great beauty of the melodies, words, and rhythms, but also because many musical compositions help me recall special times and events.
The photography instruction has also (partly by its nature) helped me increase the opportunities to remember special occasions, friends, and family. The fellowship has encouraged me to continue to learn, increase my skills and enjoy others company, despite the onset of memory loss. The photograph I am holding is of my granddaughter. She helps me remember the beauty and joy of new life and our responsibility to give.
