When Words Fade

Herb & Linda shared a relationship filled with deep conversations and laughter. Their life together was rich with adventure. As missionaries, they travelled the world with their sons, giving them a truly unique childhood - spending years in places like Colombia. In their 50’s, Herb & Linda had begun dreaming about retirement and all it might hold. But life had other plans.

As Herb approached 60, changes in his behavior began to emerge, and together they started searching for answers. Those answers did not come quickly. After nearly five years of testing, Herb was diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer’s and Lewy Body Dementia at just 63 years old.
