I'm flying to DC for the funeral of my father's best friend today. In the security line, I ran into a woman who was flying back east to meet her high school sweetheart from 50 years ago.
They're both widowed, so he used his skills from a career in Naval Intelligence to track her down. 500 emails and a ton of phone calls later, they're going to meet for the first time in 50 years.
Is that the sweetest thing you've heard in a long time or what?

For added awesome, a career intel guy of a Certain Age actually applied his skills to computers! (It's sometimes hard to get the guys just ten years older than I am to do that.)
Good luck to them both. :D
And comfort to your dad, and his friend's family.
