Renee C – Her Father’s Video
I wanted to personally thank you for taping my father, Jeff. My father had been told his cancer was terminal, but he didn’t want to accept it. My brother and I both traveled to see him and say goodbye. We tried to get him to use this time to tell us everything he would have wanted to tell; advice for being parents, wisdom about marriage… but to him, talking this way was accepting his fate, and he wasn’t ready or willing to emotionally go there.

Thank you so much for helping me out with LifeChronicles. You and your whole group made this tough situation really easy. Aimee, Kelly, AJ and yourself were really a joy to work with.

This gave her the idea to start an organization that captured individual’s memories on...

September 16, 2008 My name is Maggie and you just completed a session for my father, Dr. Bob Y., yesterday afternoon. The experience during the taping transformed me. There aren’t words to express how grateful I am for a program like yours being available. Before the taping, I was apprehensive and scared that maybe it would be too intense or uncomfortable, but as the session progressed, the only way I can explain it is that it felt like an overwhelming sense of peace came over me – and as I’m sure you’ve heard many times from people you’ve helped, it changed me....

April 7th, 2009 Hello! I am sending you money for your organization. You kindly helped a dear friend of mine chronicle her life for her children.
