## Resource

Today we talk to Camille Starkey, a longtime friend of Rob's who co-wrote a children's book as a tribute to her Grandpa Al. In Ponder Lake , Camille uses fish characters to tell the story of Molly the Minnow and her friend Al, who is struggling with Alzheimer's disease and dementia. Camille talks about why and how the book was made, and how she is helping others through the book.
