The Past "Highlight
Site" Recommendations From
Your Life Is Your Story
The major purpose of this web
site is to encourage you to pursue telling your life story, or to
preserve the stories of your family and loved ones. There are many ways
to do this (as discussed elsewhere on this site, especially at
How to Tell Your Story).
We
also regularly put into the Spotlight
a "Highlight Site" that provides quality family
history and life story methods, products and services.
