Living Legacy

Capturing a Lifetime of Experiences

Living Legacy offers a heartfelt opportunity to preserve your life’s experiences, cherished memories, and personal stories.

Through professionally recorded audio CDs, we create a lasting legacy that your family and friends will treasure for generations.

Our personal historian, Beth Burns, gently guides the process by conducting the interviews and coordinating the recording. Beth considers it a profound honor to help individuals share their unique journeys and heartfelt messages with loved ones.

For those wishing to express deeper emotions, the recording can also be a beautiful medium to convey love, gratitude, hopes, dreams, and even forgiveness. These sentiments can offer comfort and connection to those you hold dear.

Interviews can be tailored to suit your preferences, ranging from a brief 15 minutes to an in-depth session of up to two hours.

Meaningful ways to share your story:

Speak openly about your life experiences:

Take the opportunity to reflect on the key moments that have shaped your journey—your childhood, relationships, challenges, accomplishments, and cherished memories. Share the lessons you’ve learned and the wisdom you wish to pass on to future generations.

Engage in a warm, conversational exchange with your loved ones:

Invite family members or close friends to join the recording. These conversations can create a dynamic, heartfelt dialogue filled with shared stories, laughter, and the bond that connects you to those you cherish most.

Answer thoughtful and personalized questions from Beth:

If you’re not sure where to begin, Beth will guide you with gentle and thought-provoking questions designed to bring out the richness of your experiences. This approach allows you to explore memories and insights that might otherwise remain untold.

Use the recording to express deep emotions:

Beyond sharing your story, you can use this medium to communicate meaningful messages. Express love, gratitude, or forgiveness to those who matter most. Share your hopes and dreams for their futures, or convey encouragement and life lessons they can carry forward.

Let Living Legacy help you create a timeless gift of love, memory, and meaning for the ones who matter most.
