This quote struck home. For my mother’s 90th birthday I interviewed her for thirteen hours over several weeks. I then edited this into a 117 page hard cover book complete with photographs. I thought I knew my mom pretty well. Surprisingly, it wasn’t until I began to talk to her about her life in detail, that I really came to know her. It deepened my love and affection for her because I saw more clearly the underlying values and passions that had directed her life.
If you’ve been considering preparing a life story of a loved one, I urge you to make it happen this year. You won’t be disappointed.
