Jeanette Walton Johnson: “46

And I’m proud of my parents. 46
years is half of a lifetime, if not a
lifetime. I think it is remarkable for
two people to be able to give and
share for that many years and still
be able to show love towards each
other. I think they are excellent role
models to hold up to our young
people.”
Larry Walton: “In today’s society,
with so many divorces, it Is
comforting to know that marriages
can still last 46 years. And I
commend my parents for the
longevity and love of their marriage.
It means respect and admiration for
their ability to stay together for 46
years. Obviously, it means
happiness to me.”
Melvin Walton: “To my parents
(who also happen to by my best
friends)... I love you dearly, and. I
salute you on your 46th wedding
anniversary. You have bestowed
love, happiness, trust, and
dedication, not only upon each other
... but to your children as (sell.
You have built not only a good
marriage, but a good family. For
this and more, I thank God. I will
always be grateful.”

and Susan A'. Gaylord of the UNC
• School of Public Health, the book
includes sections describing Ameri
ca’s growing elderly, poputotion,
health services available to older
people and biological, environment
al- psychological ami social aspects
of aging.
National health policies for the
elderly, housing, behavior, nutri
tion and other topics are discussed in
separate chapters.
Dr. Patricia F. Waller, research
professor of health policy and ad-;
ministration at the School of Public
Health, wrote a chapter called
"Preventing Injury to the Elderly.”
“During 1981, more than 23,000
people in the United States aged 65
or older died as a result of acci
dents in the home or motor ve
hicles,” said Waller, who is also
associate director of the UNC High
way Safety Research Center.
Motor vehicle crashes are the
major cause of accidental death
- from age 65. through 74, and falls are
the leading cause of fatal injuries
above age 74;” she said.
Burns rank third as the cause of
accidental death in the 65-74 age
group.

possible or at least placed on fire

and furniture. , ' '
y Many falls can be prevented by
installing glare-free lighting,
especially on stairs, where older
people live, Waller said. Nightlights
are a good idea if the elderly are
likely to get up at night.
Since falls often occur when older!
people faint or lose their balance,
while climbing on furniture or
ladders, possessions they may want
should be stored within reach from,
the floor, for the same reason,
lamps provide safer lighting than
