Capturing Memories for Others of Your Past
When we are gone,
our stories go with us unless
we share them with our words.
Special memories of your life, your parents and grandparents' lives, your heritage.
The Village Wordsmith uses oral history techniques in confidential 1:1 interviews to capture those memories, then skillfully crafts them into your personal stories.

Capturing Memories for Others of Your Past
As of today, we each still have time to do what is truly important.
Rebuild broken bridges across regretted estrangements, reach out to an old friend,
say what needs to be said.
The Village Wordsmith, who began her career as a Social Caseworker, can take in your thoughts and feelings about the situation, then suggest personal letters or emails that might begin the healing process.
