Jerrimiah Stonecastle

Aging is the only journey everyone takes, and nobody wants directions for. In A Retiree's Thoughts on the Way to the Graveyard, award-winning author Jerrimiah Stonecastle delivers a laugh-out-loud and surprisingly heartfelt look at growing older in South Florida's legendary retirement communities. Through the eyes of a retired New Yorker navigating life in Century Village-known by some less charitable souls as "Cemetery Village"-Stonecastle explores the realities of retirement, from disappearing metabolisms and wandering memories to doctor visits, condo politics, forgotten passwords, and the daily quest for the perfect parking space.
Filled with humor, wisdom, nostalgia, and the occasional uncomfortable truth, this is not a book about dying. It's a book about living long enough to understand what really matters. If you've ever groaned while standing up, searched for glasses already sitting on your head, argued about the thermostat, or discovered that a good breakfast and a comfortable chair can make your day, you'll find yourself somewhere in these pages.
Because getting older isn't the end of the story. It's just the part nobody warned you would be this funny.
