My mother passed on her love to reading to my sister & I; I passed it on to my son (we read every night, even when he learned to read himself). Grand-daughter loves to read, grandson not so much. When my mother passed away, we asked for no flowers, but instead make a donation to our local library which is struggling. I was overwhelmed when the library notified me that they had rec'd enough donations to buy 2 complete sets of encyclopedias. There's a Memorial Sticker in each volume with her name. I'd say she's passing on her love of reading to many more generations.
