About the care needs: My dad was a pastor for many years until retirement. He is a pretty calm personality, pleasant and enjoys being with people, but his tendency is to be alone.
No special skills - he is smaller in stature at 126# - he cannot cook, so we assist with cutting up his food as needed and keeping things close. He can use his right hand/arm to eat. He does self toilet and dresses himself. Shaves, etc daily - it is time consuming for him but good exercise. I will comb his hair for him when we have appointments, church, etc.
He enjoys birds and always enjoyed a garden when he was able.
Services needed include: feeding, and bathing / dressing.
