I don't envy you, @billchitwood Car issues were a huge stumbling block with my wife. I hope all goes as well as can be hoped for on this transition.

Wishing you all the best along with Strength, Courage, & Peace

I love the people at the AZ DMV! Robin let the clerk know about Bill's problems. She was so helpful - connected the new ID with the handicap card and didn't mention revoking the DL. Also said she was doing the new address. She let Robin take care of everything while I distracted Bill. All he had to do was sign two papers, and get his picture taken. Bill signed where shown and didn't question anything.
Then a stop for Robin and Bill to enjoy a bowl of Yogurt (I'm not a fan of Yogurt or ice cream). Unlike last time he didn't throw a scene! When we left a patrol car had pulled up next to us and they offered to help Bill (he did okay on his own).
One thing I've found throughout most of my life is that people, wherever you meet them, tend to be really nice and are quick to offer help. Smiles make a day. And today was full of smiles. Thanks to all of you as well. I can feel your smiles.
