We protect the privacy of the families we work with. Because client archives are confidential, we share their testimonials to show the impact of preserving these voices.
“Hearing my father's voice tell the story of his first fishing season in Bristol Bay — I had never heard that before. Now my children will know exactly how he sounded when he laughed.”
Sarah M.
Daughter of a commercial fisherman, Homer, Alaska
“We did this for my mother who was facing early memory decline. Six months later, she doesn't remember the interview — but we do. And we have her voice forever.”
James T.
Son, Anchorage, Alaska
“Cody made my grandfather feel like the most interesting person in the world. And he is. The Story Index alone is worth every penny — we listen to 'Advice to Grandchildren' at every family gathering.”
