Hello!
We are excited to create this blog. Amie has collected over 40 years of letters and cards and many of them are from Grandma. Keli has worked on family genealogy for years. When Grandma died in 2020, we both had ideas that we should preserve family memories for us to enjoy now and for future generations to have for years to come. Please send us your ideas, post in the forum, write a guest blog, or post pictures. We hope that this blog will grow and be a great place for our family to post memories and future dreams.

Amie is the oldest child of Jay and LaDonna. She grew up in Littleton with her parents, attended college and started working in MN, and then moved to California. In 1999, Amie and her husband decided to return to Colorado to raise Mitch and Courtney and be closer to family. Amie likes cards and letters and has saved many from relatives through the years. She teaches school principals at the University of Northern Colorado and lives in Greeley, CO.
Keli Shapiro
Grandaughter of Lorraine
Keli is the daughter of Jay and LaDonna. She also grew up in Littleton and went to college in MN also. She met Steve Shapiro, moved to Wisconsin, Utah, Colorado, and back to Wisconsin with Steve and their two sons, Jake and Sid. After many years of taking care of the boys, she has returned to teaching. Keli interviewed Grandma and got her to write down several of her stories before she passed away.
