Remembering the Grimshaws is the sweeping family memoir of the Grimshaw family, tracing four generations of legacy, ambition, and resilience — from William Raymond Grimshaw's fateful move to Tulsa, Oklahoma, around 1920, to the story of his great-granddaughter Emma. When W.R. Grimshaw arrived in Tulsa, he brought with him a construction business and an unwavering determination to build something lasting. His timing proved fortuitous — Tulsa's oil boom fueled extraordinary growth, and even as the Great Depression tightened its grip on the rest of the nation, the city continued to rise. For over fifty years, W.R. Grimshaw Company left its mark on the Tulsa skyline, its buildings standing as monuments to one family's enduring vision. In this deeply personal memoir, Eric Grimshaw sets out to do what the title demands — to remember. With care and devotion, he pieces together his family's story, ensuring that the triumphs, sacrifices, and personalities that shaped four generations are not lost to time. From the ambition of a grandfather who built a city to the lives of those who inherited his legacy, this is a testament to the power of memory, family, and the enduring desire to leave something behind.
