I'm convinced that my maternal grandparents' 7 children and 18 grandchildren all thought they were the favorite child of one of these lovely folks. In my case, it seemed that I was Grandpappy's favorite grandchild. It was to him that I made the promise as a 9 year old, that my daughter would be named, Julia, in honor and memory of his beloved mother, whom I never knew. And he did live long enough to know my precious Julia.
Grandpappy loved word search puzzles. Little did I know that this was a great memory boosting tool. When I discovered an electronic version of word searches positioned to keep the brain young, I was immediately transported back in time with vivid memories of Grandpappy and his word search books. Each time I complete a memory boosting puzzle, I'm instantly connected to my dear grandfather.
A technology he never knew provides a memory enhancing connection to him that I treasure.
