Porch Stories

Questions to ask · Love · for your Grandpa

How did you meet Grandma? What did you notice first?

Why this question matters

How two people met is the beginning of your own story too. Small details, a dance, a letter, a first impression, are the parts that are easiest to lose.

Ask it on a quiet afternoon, give time for the answer, and write down the small details. That is where the story lives.

  1. Where was your first home together? What was in it?
  2. What is a small, everyday thing you love about her?
  3. What was the hardest time you went through together, and how did you get through it?
  4. What makes a marriage last, in your experience?
  5. What is your favourite memory of the two of you?
