I shared some personal information below about my brother and his homelessness issues.  I have a lot of mixed feelings about people being homeless. One side is really wanting to help the homeless if they are really wanting to help themselves like my brother.  Some of the folks I'm sure are just cruzin' until the end of their life. I want my brother to move up here with me, but I don't know if that will happen.  I don't think I want to move to Tampa, FL. He is staying at a Salvation Army right now, but they lost funding so he has to move out.  He still has some money left.  Unfortunately he is somewhat generous to help people and has given some of his money to others.  One of the remarks he made to me was about the amount of elderly that are homeless.  I noticed that the short time I volunteered at Anchorage's overflow women's shelter. I'm talking about people being in their 70 and 80s.  It is known that we baby boomers aren't very prepared for retirement!
