Preserving the Voices We Love
Don't be surprised if you start saving voicemails from your parents or grandparents after you hear Charles Ornstein's NPR story (5:38), "'Kiss Everybody': Voice Mails Live On After Parents Are Gone." Here are a few lines from his heartwarming story:
I have many treasured memories of my mom, who died two years ago this month. . . .But somehow, oddly, the voice mails — those unscripted moments of everyday life — are the ones I turn to most often.
How are you preserving the voices of those you love?
Enjoying time with my parents on Mom's 80th birthday.
