John and Ann Getway whose lifelong struggles stemmed from injuries he suffered during a combat operation as a paratrooper during World War II.
Most people are too busy living their lives to understand and appreciate what they have accomplished. Taking the time to reflect on what you have achieved might well be a most rewarding experience, especially if it results in a story or video about your life. And as a bonus, your story can remain as a legacy for your children, grandchildren, and future generations.
Your life — yes, your life — is a series of challenges and triumphs that, when captured in a well-told story, can inspire others. In fact, it can do something even more amazing. It can inspire you!
Your own Personal History
If you can write your own story, we welcome you to post it permanently here in our Celebrate a Life® pages. If you need some help putting it together, we can provide guidance and editing, or recommend a Life Story writer to work with you.
Better yet, make and post a video or audio recording
Do you ever wish you could see your great-great-grandparents in motion and hear their voices? Your descendents will wish the same thing. You can make sure that they have that opportunity. Again, if you can do it yourself, we will post it here. If you need some help, we can provide that, too.
