One of those ideas is the "As Told To"
story.
The As Told To story is one you have
heard, possibly numerous times. It is a story that may
live large in the life of your family.
It may be poignant, or it may be
hilarious, but if you don't record it, it will be
lost!
This Valentine's Day Story is one that
I've heard many times from my dear friend Phyllis. She
is now 85 and lost her husband of many years just two
years ago.
This story takes place right
after World War II. Elbert had returned from Japan
and India where he had worked as a medic. Elbert
reported that during the war, "I never killed
anyone."
The story was most fun to hear from
Elbert with Phyllis chiming in details. Now that he is
gone, I had to record it for my dear friends.
