The amazing thing about documenting your life story is that it will exist for many generations to enjoy. So, what may seem trivial or obvious to you now - or stories that you may think everyone has already heard a million times - could be incredibly interesting and valuable to them in the future.

I used this format and questions to help my 82-year-old mother create her life story in 2023: “Toasty Brown Tales.” We had a lot of fun putting it together and I can attest this is a wonderful, meaningful activity to do with an older parent, relative or friend.
