Stardust Memories

About the Book

How many of us have wished we could have Grandma or Grandpa back for just one more day? If only Grandma could look at these old family photos and tell us who these people are. The bad news is that we can't bring deceased loved ones back, but the good news is that we all have loved ones who are still with us and have the answers to many questions. Now is the hour for that all important interview of your grandparents and parents.

Many who have reached their nineties are still bright, active, and full of fun. In this book you will meet some of these sharp seniors. You will learn how Alice, at age ninety performed with elegance in a California Beauty Pageant. Find out why Gil's claim to fame was his race against Jesse Owen in the hurdles. Chuckle as Al, a self-proclaimed nudist, tells about the day he dropped his trunks at the pool's edge of a local country club. Share the joy of Roxie's big 100th birthday party in Nevada.

I hope you will use this book as a tool for conducting easy and meaningful interviews of your aging loved ones. Eighty questions are provided.
