Living History

As many of you know I have spent sometime over the last few years gaining knowledge about my Slovak-Rusyn family roots. I have really come to appreciate the importance of knowing our ancestors as best we can and lament the degree to which we tend not to value familial paradosis.

My particular friend Basil and his family are blessed to have still with them their 100 year old (great) grandmother. More than that, she has further blessed them (and us) with the writing of her remarkable memoirs. I encourage you all to purchase a copy.

By the well Basil, may I have mine autographed?
