This is the follow through episode on visiting my Aunt Marilyn Kohn and recording a video of Kohn Family history, beginning with her growing up, her parents, high school, college, meeting Uncle Rudy, meeting Grandma Mary Kohn and moving forward to today and what she is looking forward to. We recorded 12 segments from 9 to 25 minutes each on Friday and Saturday morning. It was amusing how one memory, or question, triggers another, much like a pin ball machine in your brain. As you may guess, the best questions and answers occurred when the camera was not rolling. For instance, I asked her about the secrets to a long and happy marriage (hers was 47 years) on Friday night after shutting the video off and sipping a glass of wine. Her answer would have been an immediate viral sensation and Aunt Marilyn would have been a media star if on camera. On Saturday, asking the same question, received a subtler and tamer answer. Entertaining, but not the same. While recording, my son, David, Face Timed in from afar, which w

It was 45 years ago. I remember being at my Great Aunt Helen’s house and walking through it as a young 20 something. I wanted to ask about Great Uncle Johnny who had passed away 10 year prior. He was a WW1 vet and entrepreneur. I choked though. I was afraid I would make her sad or hurt her feelings and did not ask. As if it was being disrespectful. Then, I did not know that asking about a loved one long gone, would bring the memories and blessings of past times back to her, and to great Uncle Johnny. I will teach my children and grandchildren to ask insightful questions about the dead and gone. And to video record the answers while they are still available.
