My mother was my first influencer, a fact of my life for which I am deeply grateful. As I watched dementia slowly take her, I became obsessed with finding photos of her long lost loved ones, her parents and sister, because we had precisely none. I had never seen a picture of her daddy, or her mother, though she spoke about them with deep affection, longing, and respect. The mystery is unraveled in my book about them, titled Albert Loved Sylvia (A Family Love Story).
I succeed in digging up photos of them, and it brought her back to life. She recognized them instantly, joyously. Sacred moments. Carma Gagne ChanProud daughter of Ruth Carrol Gagne Chan, daughter of Albert and Sylvia Gagne
