Your story matters

Reasons for developing a personal history are as personal as the book itself. Some motives expressed by others include to:

Add warmth to family heritage with stories, not found in genealogy.

Gain peace-of-mind knowing that treasured stories will be preserved.

Give future generations a historical glimpse into life of a past generation.

Provide meaning and enrichment to life.

Teach, entertain, impart wisdom, share joy and heartache, leave a legacy.

Create meaningful connections between generations.

"Working with Cedar Chest Memories was a truly wonderful experience. They helped me put my memories in a format that was enjoyable to read, adding sprinkles of humor throughout. I would recommend making a book for your family, so they can know who you were as a child and are as an adult. Living through life's hills and valleys is what makes you who you are." -- Mary C.
