Mother in Law

About 18 months ago Karen's Mother, Hazel Guriel, fell while at her home in Illinois. She became dizzy from the flu and was hit pretty hard on the head when she fell. As a result we moved her to Cincinnati and it was a wonderful addition to our family.

We just celebrated Hazel's 90th Birthday. Just think, from 1916 unto 2006! What memories and big events. She is a great story teller and the grand kids and great grand kids love to hear about "The good old days".

She can remember the 1918 flu epidemic, WWI, The Depression, WWII, Pearl Harbor, Korea, Viet Nam, etc, etc, etc.

If you have some older relatives make sure you allow them time to share their memories with the younger generations. How they met their spouse; dating; music; wars; depressions; etc. The kids need to learn from their elders.
