I wanted to share this picture with you. My dad passed out signed copies of his book to all the kids and grandkids at Christmas this year. It was a very special gift that the kids will cherish forever. Many of my friends who know my dad well have read the book and love it. It’s a mixture of his life story and a little history lesson combined into one. I’m so happy that we finally finished the book and I am very proud of it. -Paula Ko, West Chester, Penn.
Excited my mom's book is finished. This is one of the best things I have ever done for her and our family. So glad I found you. -Bill Resh, Henderson, Nev.
Thank you for the tender, loving care that you both showered on my mom. Your kindness and attention to her is appreciated. This book is marvelous. Your ability to allow the personality of the subject to flow through the passages, perfectly captured the story of a Detroit girl who is part of the Greatest Generation. -Tom and Marcia Cardelli, Pleasant Ridge, Mich.
I am so pleased that my dad finally completed our project with you. I am so appreciative of the unique and special experience provided to us. -Jill Garvey, Grosse Pointe, Mich.
Thank you for helping produce my mom's and uncle's book. My mom has been having long phone calls with people she has not seen in years who are now reading the book. Everyone is loving it. Thanks again for all that you did in writing this book for us! It is a great way to document our family history. I am so glad we did this! -Eva Demeter - Pleasant Ridge, Mich.
·It was such a pleasure having my mother's memoirs recorded for her 90th birthday. Hiring Susan and Gigi was my gift to my mother on this special occasion. I had copies of this (recording) made for my mother's children, grandchildren and other very close family and friends that attended her 90th birthday celebration. We all loved the 80 minutes of listening to my mother's voice as she remembered her early years in Poland and her later childhood growing up in the Bronx, NY once she came to the United States. But I think the person who most loved listening to this recording was my 90 year old mother herself - she shared that she was in tears as she heard herself speak! Yes, the memories touched her heart, but even more important, I think she realized how passionate and coherent her thoughts were on this recording - and she was quite impressed with her own ability at age 90 to remember so many times in her life with such detail! I don't think I could have come up with any other gift that would have been more meaningful than having Susan and Gigi to capture my mother's heart and soul! -Gail Katz, West Bloomfield, Mich.
I can't express how much it means to our family to have a book commemorating Papa Walter and all the important stories of his life. But what is even more fun is that my two daughters can actually listen to the voice of their great-grandpapa telling his stories from a CD. Thank you so much, Your Personal Memoir, for sharing your expertise to help us beautifully preserve a part of our family's history. I know this will be cherished for generations to come. We look forward to working with you on other projects in the future. -Karen Piotrowski, Sandy, Utah
I'd like to send special thanks on behalf of my family to Your Personal Memoir for creating a CD of our Dad's letters to Mom while he was in the service during the Korean War. Your Personal Memoir took a pile of letters, discovered after Dad passed away, scanned, organized and burned a CD for each family member. The letters provide a fascinating look into our parents' lives, thoughts and dreams before they became Mom and Dad. We all can now appreciate what a treasure the letters are - and share with future generations. -Mike P., Pleasant Ridge, Mich.
Kay's memoir captures her spirit, personality, and philosophy. Generations to come can now appreciate where they come from and a bit of who they are. -A. Allan Schmid University Distinguished Professor, Emeritus Michigan State University, East Lansing, Mich.
