Oh how I wish I had had the means and the forethought to capture my grandmother’s words about her life when she was still alive!  She died before I even owned a camcorder.  I think I had one of those old-fashioned clunky tape recorders when she was still living.  But in my youth it never occurred to me to capture her words on tape.

Thankfully I do have pictures of her and my grandfather.  But photos don’t do justice to the personality, the voice, her smile, her laugh, and her memories.  How sad that so many of her memories and her personality are lost to us now.

How I wish I could videotape her now!!
