“ 22 MEEK SCHOOL

My grandmother died 20 years ago. I never thought about documenting her. Why would I? When you’re young you think you’re going to live forever and your loved ones will too. I didn’t know that I would miss her increasingly over the years. Time heals pain, but it doesn’t stop you from wondering what you could have done to preserve every single thing about your loved one before they become a shadow of a memory. I find myself trying to remember little things like the color of Gram’s nail polish. So, I chose to honor her by interviewing other peoples’ grandmothers. — ALYSIA STEELE, MEEK SCHOOL ASSISTANT PROFESSOR
