GROWING BOLDER / JUNE 202 2 DIGE S T

The landscape of activities to help our minds flourish and our passions thrive is growing every day. One man who has crafted a life around a love of arts and sciences is Richard Thill. Now 82-years-old, Thill is spreading his creative wings as far as they can go. He plays clarinet in a jazz band. He spends weekends competing in dragon boat races. He keeps bees and is a master gardener. He’s currently learning Ukrainian, in the hopes of taking in refugees displaced by the war with Russia. Above all that, he’s making a difference in the world as an advisor to a tech company, GrandPad, helping to advance products to make it easier for seniors to get online and connect with loved ones.
