Col. Jim Ling, USAF (Ret), believes it’s important “to keep moving, as long as you’re able, and make contributions to your community.” At age 90, he’s doing just that.
He is chairman of the board of the South Fort Collins Sanitation District, a volunteer with the Pathways Hospice We Honor Veterans Program, and active with the WY-CO Border Chapter of MOAA. He also is a bagpiper, with nearly 70 years of experience, and plays at local ceremonies and events.
