How Good Were You? A Memory Journal for Grandpa
This edition of How Good Were You? is built specifically around a grandfather's story. A 2021 survey found that two thirds of people regret not asking their grandparents more about their lives before they passed away, while 83 percent said the memories they did get to hear are ones they cherish forever. This journal gives Grandpa a structured, low pressure way to share his story in his own words, before those stories are gone for good. Comes as a spiral bound, 6 by 9 inch keepsake. This journal also supports Every Kid Sports, a national nonprofit that covers youth sports registration fees for kids from income restricted families, so a kid who wants to play never has to sit out because of what it costs.
