Just make a bunch of old person jokes. “Time for a new hip?” “Wow I’m impressed you can use a cell phone so well at your age” “Do you think you walked faster at 2 years old or now?” “Do you know any good estate planners? I’m sure you’ve been thinking about that?” “You’re going to the bathroom a lot you should get your prostate checked that’s a big thing at your age?” “Were people mad that donkeys were put out of business when the steam engine was invented? “Do you ever wish you could go back in time so you could touch your toes again?”

And do it nonstop.

Also play dementia with him. “You said you were going to grab that 504 for me an hour ago did you forget?” “Did you ever email back X student’s mom like you said you were going to?” “I don’t want you to forget where you put your keys do you want me to hold them for you?”

My dad with dementia HATES when I ask stuff like that.

Lastly when you’re around him make little comments about how it smells bad or smells like death and look over to him.
