“My Granddaddy Used to Say…”

This video about young people remembering words of wisdom dispensed by their grandparents will put a smile on your face.

And maybe it will inspire you to grab a video camera (or even the voice recorder on your smart phone) and ask your kids about the advice they’ve received from a grandparent or other special family member. It doesn’t have to be a big project—you can do it around the dinner table. If the family members are still alive, record them too. When the very youngest members of your family are older, they will love being able to connect with older generations in such a vivid, immediate way.

Your family’s stories are priceless. For help with a legacy project, contact David G. O’Neil at Story Trust.

We specialize in helping families and businesses capture the stories that matter.
