Creating a permanent record of your memories establishes a foundational link with future generations of your family, some of whom you will never know. For them, your recollections will provide a unique view of the era in which you have lived, the events you have witnessed and the other family members you have known.

 

Most important, it gives future generations insight into your life experience and what you have learned from it. As each generation passes, this collection of memories will gain in value to your family.

 

Preserving your history isn’t just another way of massaging your ego – it’s a way of telling your heirs who you were, where you came from and how you formed your beliefs and convictions.
