I love talking to him about the family and as he is getting on in years and as his memory is starting to fail, this will be my best opportunity to get as much information as I can to help in my family history research.

In the course of my research I have gained access to everything Katie saved including letters and photos of my direct line. In the course of sorting through all these letters and photos, I have come to feel a strong affinity with Katie... I would love to interview her daughter (who is still alive) to find out more about this woman who kept my family alive for me!!

I would love to interview my Mother. She's eternal in my eyes, but I'm beginning to realize that she's slowly getting on in years and we should start recording those family memories for future generations, including her grandchildren. Season's greetings to all! :D Great idea! I would love to interview my Mother.

However, since they all have passed away, I would choose a combination of my mother and my father. Both have such rich stories to tell that I know their grandchildren currently enjoy, so I would love for future generations to be able to as well.
