I think that even if the younger generation doesn't ask, you should write it down anyway. Someday they'll want to know.

I wish I could have been old enough to get Grandpa Kasallis's stories, and not so afraid of Grandma June to get hers...<br /><br />Storytelling is a lost art. It used to be entertainment, but now we've got technology for that, so the stories get lost. I am glad you are leaving your stories in scrapbooks. Tell more about your childhood!<br />xoxo<br />ChristineAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042586512666581047.post-6152213636075836282009-10-14T18:52:05.954-05:002009-10-14T18:52:05.954-05:00Hi Peg,

You are right,everyone turns to you to get the story.Larry was having trouble figuring out who was who in the picture you sent with Terry pointing the toy gun at Jerry. I got it!!!Was Larry taking the picture? I really wish we had been able to ask my parents some of these questions before it was too late. I'm glad you are able to keep track of it all. Do you sleep?!?! It's great that Jamie has the same passion for it as you do...another thing to draw you to each other!<br /><br />love,<br />LindaLinda Casserlynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042586512666581047.post-46703135831659963702009-10-12T19:16:52.078-05:002009-10-12T19:16:52.078-05:00Yesterday and TodayYesterday and TodayPeggy Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11931080361170776356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042586512666581047.post-33370201310758436832009-10-12T18:28:28.462-05:002009-10-12T18:28:28.462-05:00That's great!

It worked pretty well. If done with two or more story tellers they seem to prompt each other. Well worth the effort. Wonder if any of the young will be interested in our stories???Billnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3042586512666581047.post-53101639501598004502009-10-12T08:41:25.896-05:002009-10-12T08:41:25.896-05:00So excellent, Peggy!

The question "what would I want people to know about me, if I was gone tomorrow?" is a great one. Hmmmmm . . . <br /><br />Please bring the intro page w/you on Friday!Leannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17800466894354194636noreply@blogger.com
