    Have him keep a cool cloth over his face. I'd buy him one of those nifty water cooler pack things with the straw that he can wear on his back.

    I used to give my grandma popsicles, she loved them and didn't realize that I was giving them to her because I didn't want her getting heatstroke. She didn't like drinking water & only drank a couple of cups of coffee in the morning...

    Just remember what is hot to a younger moving person is not as hot to a sedentary older person. Up until a couple days ago, my Dad was still in his thermies and flannel. I'm in flip flops and tanks. Do keep an eye on him and make sure he has drinks but he may be enjoying the "thaw out" feel from winter.
