Parks-Romick Family Tree
An apology to my Grandparents
When Grandparents talk, my advice is to listen. As a child, when My Grandpa Parks and Grandma Sally would tell stories of their ancestors, I would dive for the nearest door. Oh if only I had sat down and listened to their stories of our ancestors. When your Grandparents start telling outrageous stories of past glories of their ancestors, do not assume that they are making it up to entertain. You may end up as surprised as I was to learn that all they were doing was telling you as much as they could remember about their family. Probably, because as children they also dived for the nearest door, some of it mixed with fable but most of it well worth the knowing.
