Review Quotes

"So many families are separated by distance, and it is harder for grandparents to be able to pass on their personal stories and family history to their grandchildren. Stories From Grandpa is a great way to help grandfathers be able to share those special stories, and it also makes a great keepsake. I especially love the chapters on family traditions, growing up, school days, and life lessons. What a blessing this book will be for grandfathers and for grandchildren!" --Scarlet Paolicchi founder of familyfocusblog.com and author of Welcome to the Family!

"It is so important to record the stories of our lives to pass on to future generations before we are gone and they are lost forever. It can be hard to know what to write or to start the process. This will be a lovely gift to pass on to your grandchildren." -- Patrice

"My father shares so many stories with us and my children. We gifted this to him and encouraged him to start filling it out and to give it back to my kids for a gift when he finishes it. As time goes on, his memories and stories will be a forever memory and keepsake not only for myself, but for my children and then someday their children. This is a perfect gift for a Grandpa!" -- Sunnie
