The story behind the book
Sometimes a memory begins with a loving question.
This book grew out of conversations with my grandfather. As remembering became harder for him, we began asking gentle questions. We talked about familiar people, little moments, and stories from his life.
Sometimes the memories came back. He would tell us stories, smile, and seem fully present with us again.
Those moments showed me how much a loving question can mean. The idea for Colors of My Life grew from the stories we shared.
For both of you. And for all the stories that deserve to live on.
