Day 36: Thanks for the Memories

November 5, 2022

Dear Disney,

Today’s 30 days of thanks is all about our memories. Darling and I started Dear Disney in order to write down and share some of our most treasured things, our memories. The memories of Disney are the memories of our family and friends, of time long gone. Walt Disney said, “Goodbye may seem forever. Farewell is like the end, but in my heart is the memory and there you will always be.”

Growing up, my memories of Disney was the cartoons and movies, the shorts that I saw at my grandmother’s house or with my family on Sunday evenings. They were Summer Days with my sister when it was too hot to go outside. It was watching TGIF Disneyland and Disneyworld specials and longing to be there. Darling remembers singing Disney songs to her grandfather and going to Disneyland with her mom and dad.

We are both thankful for the memories we have and the memories we plan on making.

What is your favorite Disney memory?

Sincerely,

Jim Dear and Darling
