Grandparents: Story Keepers

Photographer: Jeanine Thurston

Life is a story – the story of our journey in time. Which is why it is so important to value the lessons of the past through interaction with the elderly and promoting the art of storytelling. Whether caused by distance, busy schedules or a growing generation gap in the Internet age, it can be a challenge for grandparents to connect with their grandchildren – but learning from the past and relationships is such an important part of feeling part of a family.
