Legacy Reflection Stories
Every life contains stories worth preserving.
Legacy is more than accomplishments, family trees and important dates.
It's Dad's ridiculous story everyone has heard 47 times. Grandma's recipe nobody actually has written down. The song that always played in the kitchen. How your parents met. What someone wanted to be when they were eight years old. The chance they almost didn't take. The advice they never forgot. The object sitting on a shelf that means absolutely nothing to a stranger—and everything to your family.
Legacy Reflection sessions create intentional space to remember, tell, discover and preserve those pieces of a life.
There are several ways we can approach your reflection:
My Story — Preserve your own memories, experiences, relationships, traditions, lessons and stories in your own voice.
Their Story — Preserve the legacy of someone you love. They may participate themselves, need assistance telling their story, or their story may be lovingly reconstructed after they have transitioned through the memories of the people who knew them.
Our Story — Gather family or loved ones together to remember. Different perspectives are welcome. One person's memory may spark another person's story, and sometimes the best pieces surface simply because everyone is finally sitting together asking questions.
This may be a good fit if:
You want your children or grandchildren to know more about who you are beyond your role in their lives.
An aging parent or grandparent has stories you don't want to lose.
You wish you knew more about someone's childhood, relationships, adventures or ordinary life.
Someone you love has transitioned and you want to preserve the stories that remain.
You want to document family traditions, recipes, sayings, photographs, keepsakes or memories.
Your family would enjoy sitting together, laughing, remembering and discovering things about one another.
There are stories you've always thought, “Someone really needs to write this down.”
And importantly:
Legacy work does not require someone to be dying.
Sometimes the most beautiful time to preserve someone's story is while they're sitting right beside you telling it.
