Leon Bernstein | Social Media and Benefits Club Assistant
Favorite grandparent memory:
"I'll never forget how my syrian grandmother used to sprinkle cinnamon into her tomato sauce and get chills from the outside of a peach."

Ellen Breslau | Editor-in-Chief
Best advice from a grandparent:
"My mother gives my children the most amazing advice. Among her pearls of wisdom:
For when my kids are down...Bubbie's advice...'Tomorrow is another day.' For when my kids break something by accident...Bubbie's advice...'It's only stuff. Stuff can always be replaced.' For when my kids don't like their parents very much... Bubbie's advice (Which really came from Papa!)...'Your parents are your best friends. You don't know it yet, but someday you will.'"

Shannon Copfer | Graphic and Web Design Lead
Favorite grandparent memory:
"When I was younger, my siblings, cousins and I used to have sleepovers at our Grandma Sylvia and Grandpa Joe's house. I think about that all the time — the 50's-style bed we used to sleep in at their house is in my house now!"

Clare Davis | Account Director
Favorite grandparent memory:
"In college, my grandmother sent me $2.00 every week that she said was to be used for a 'hamburger, not cigarettes or beer.'"

Jennifer Fragale | Director, Social Media and Benefits Club
Favorite grandparent memory:
"When my brother and I were young kids, our Italian grandmother always used to say rather forcefully, 'Capisci?' (pronounced 'capeesh'). We had no idea what it meant, but we’d just answer back meekly, 'Capisci.' I now know it means 'understand?' and our response was appropriate."

Caitlin Janovic | Social Media and Benefits Club Manager
Advice you'd give your future grandkids:
"Don't waste a minute of your life settling. Chase your dreams with intensity and patience."

Deborah Long | Senior Editor
Best advice from a grandparent:
"Books are your friends! They can take you places you couldn’t get to any other way and introduce you to people you couldn’t otherwise meet, so treat them with respect!"

Kate Luna | Director, Analytics and Research
Best advice from a grandparent:
"Whenever someone new enters your life, greet them as warmly as you would an old friend."

LaToya Monah | Marketing Assistant
Advice you'd give your future grandkids:
"In the words of Zora Neale Hurston, "Those that don't have it, can't show it. Those that have it, can't hide it.""

Gretchen Schmoker | Receptionist and Executive Assistant
Best advice from a grandparent:
"My father's father, Everett, said to me during the 2000 election: "Girlie, the world is full of people who will promise you anything. The real thing you gotta look for is the living. All this nonsense about who's in charge ain't where the real deal is -- it's how YOU live the life God has given you." If that wasn't advice, I'm not sure what is. "

Matthew Schwartz | VP, Administration and Compliance
Favorite grandparent memory:
"If only I had a nickel for every time my grandmother asked me to fix the VCR!"

Kristen Swensson Sturt | Senior Editor
Best advice from a grandparent:
"You learn something new every day. Also, 'Grandma Got Run Over by a Reindeer' is a terrible song."
