Years ago, y cousin Marcia had our Grandma Royuk fill out a booklet that asked a bunch of questions about her life. Marcia recently made copies of the booklet and gave us all one.
I read it a couple of days ago. It was really fascinating. It made me think that maybe I should write down some stuff before I completely forget everything… but I guess that’s what this website is for.
One of the questions and answers in my grandma’s book made me laugh out loud:
Ha! I don’t remember her ever being angry either. She was so soft-spoken.
That is so cool! I think books like that are a great idea – now you can ‘see’ your Grandma and how she would have said all that! How thoughtful of Marcia to make copies for you all. 🙂
I’ve come across a few ‘making memories’ ideas lately. On Reddit, someone posted that every so often you should take video of some daily life – it’s fun to look back on it years later. I wish I would have done that in this house more so I could remember the furniture and the paint.
Maybe you could post some of those questions and your own answers here?
