Frank Maguire, 90, plays a game of chess in his west Dearborn home. The nonagenarian taught his son, Mike, to play 50 years ago, and Mike in turn has taught scores of students the game as a chess coach in Indiana. Elizabeth Barbieri -- For The Press & Guide

Mike,

 I can see how sharp your father’s mind was still as of 3 years ago in that video at the senior home. I hope mine is half that sharp even 10-15 years younger assuming I make it at least that long.
