	"Preserving the Past for the FUTURE!"

Wouldn't it be fascinating to discover just who your parents or grandparents or other family members really are. Where did they grow up? Where did they attend school? What events did they witness that affected them or their community or their nation? Every day these loved ones are going to their graves along with their stories never to be told to the next generation or anyone else… silent forever. I can record your oral history on quality video tape and I can include still pictures and music if requested along with the original story. Preserve family history for generations to come. Discover what family members have endured, enjoyed and witnessed and record it on a quality medium.

	ORAL HISTORIES: I seek to provide families with top quality video of parents, grandparents and other family members as they share their experiences as a child and young adult and other significant events of their life for others to hear and enjoy. Parents, uncles, grandparents are dieing each day along with the accounts and memories that describe just who they were and are. I can capture those recollections on broadcast-quality video for your family to keep as a record and share with other family members for generations to come. Some families choose to interview their own family members, but I can provide an interviewer if it is requested. The video can be just "raw tape" or it can be edited. I can ad color or B&W pictures, text titles and music if desired. It can be anywhere from 20 minutes to 3 hours in length and using one or two cameras.
