How Simple It Is to Prepare What We Leave Behind

Wednesday, March 27, 2024 @ 11:15 am - 1:00 pm

PROGRAM

You’ll discover an easy and lasting process for collecting and preserving your personal thoughts, history, family photos…and more.

The saying goes: “The first generation KNOWS. The second generation REMEMBERS. And the third generation FORGETS.” You can control whatever you wish your family to remember.

Learn Insights into deciding what to leave behind for whomever might say, “If only she had…” Perhaps you will even uncover some surprising family discoveries along the way. Memories are good, but written memories are treasures. When you save something as simple as grandmother’s cheese and spaghetti recipe, your family will thank you and remember grandma.
