A little about me

Hi, I don't think we have met. My name is Garry Cole.

I am not a doctor, scientist, psychiatrist, nutritionist, or gerontologist. I am a guy on the aging journey, just like you.

Garry Cole, author

Originally I did the research and wrote this book for myself, but humbly want to share it with you.

My desire is to remember the past, but more importantly prepare for the future.

If you are like me and want to understand and prepare for our aging journey, I invite you to grab the book along with your favorite cup of coffee. Because every conversation should begin with a great cup of coffee.

I hope you enjoy our time together.

PS. On a personal note- I am currently enjoying life spending time with my wife, dog and two cats, and living vicariously through my two recently “adulted” children. I am a lucky guy.

Book covers, front and back

It started with a ton of research. I wanted to understand what the experts think about aging and how we can make this time in our lives as enjoyable as possible.

For Are We Old Yet? I drew from four sources:

  1. Research. What do the experts say?

  2. Work experience in the aging industry. You learn a lot from being around people who have lived a long time.

  3. Watching my parents age and eventually pass.

  4. My own aging journey. Yes, I am in it.

I am happily married and the father of two wonderful kids. You will meet them in the book.
