Welcome to our digital edition of the July/August 2021 issue of Northeast Ohio Boomer & Beyond magazine (and look for the print magazine at 700 outlets, including your neighborhood Marc’s, Heinen’s, Giant Eagle, Discount Drug Mart, libraries, wellness centers, medical offices, senior centers and more).
Read all about living “Your Best Life,” the theme of this issue. Rock musician Neil Giraldo, featured on our cover, shows us how he does it. Boomer’s pop culture columnist Mike Olszewski met Neil years ago when Mike worked for radio station WMMS. He brings us up to date with the Cleveland-area native, his life with wife Pat Benatar, his thoughts about the Rock Hall, and his latest venture.
We also have a story about folks who have the enthusiasm and ability to turn lowly grape juice into fine wines, a grandparents’ section featuring an article on how to pass along your family values through the generations, a timely article on groundbreaking Alzheimer’s research taking place in Northeast Ohio… and so much more!
Finally, tell us about someone in Northeast Ohio who has made a difference in the lives of people aged 50+. Have they created a product? Solved a problem? Improved living conditions for older adults? Supported grandparents raising grandkids? Tell us. We want to recognize them through our Boomer Impact Awards, which we’ll announce in our November/December issue. Go to northeastohiothrive.com for details or email editor Marie Elium at [email protected]. Nominations are now open.
