What happens when a young woman in the springtime of life and her wise uncle in the winter of his start corresponding? And keep it up for eighteen years? Ellen Doyle, OSU, an Ursuline nun, was eighteen and dear Uncle Stanley, a diocesan priest, was sixty-eight at the beginning of their correspondence. Grateful for their own intergenerational relationship, Ellen and her great-uncle both believed from the beginning that their friendship was meant to share with others. This memoir invites readers to engage their own intergenerational relationships and to discover new ones in every season of life, whether with a young adult away from home for the first time or with a grandmother revisiting a lifetime of family stories. Beginning with spring themes and ending with winter, letters written by Uncle Stanley and Ellen are prompts for reflection and for the reader's own letter-writing and intergenerational dialogue.
