Happily, my relatives were inspired to share their own memories of her. In fact, each wrote a jam-packed page of emotional notes about this much-loved ancestor.
Seeing how excited they were to share what they remembered, I decided to reprint.
Now this family history booklet is a bit longer, with several pages devoted to memories. I interspersed a few sepia photos to break up the blocks of text and inject a touch of color at the end.
Affordable ($22 for two spiral-bound booklets) and ready for my relatives to take home when they visit for the holidays.
What I learned: The booklet has become a treasure-trove of personal memories of someone special. These reminiscences will live on along with the genealogical background info, to be passed down in print to future generations.
