Your regrets

Not everything turned out the way you had hoped. But, whatever decision you made had ripple effects on others. Your story is their story, too. Give them insight to what happened and why.

Your history

Right now, you are your family’s go-to source for family history. When you’re gone, who has the wealth of understanding and rich stories that you do?

Time is running out!

Save your story today!

We often act like we’ll live forever. In reality, the countdown has already begun.

If you’re like most seasoned citizens, you have always wanted to capture the highlights of your life story. But, you don’t know where to begin.

Perhaps, your family has been begging you to preserve key information about your life. But, it sounds like too much work, and you think you’ve lead a boring life.

Maybe someone you love is expected to pass away soon, and you want to capture his or her story before it’s too late.

I have known Greg Gerber for several years, and in that time, I have become increasingly impressed with his ability to capture the essence of someone else’s life story.

His background in journalism, skilled writing, and genuine interest in the lives of others is a combination that can’t be easily replicated.

When I heard about what he was doing with Life Story School, I told him, “I wish something like this existed years ago when my grandparents were around. I would have loved to capture their stories when they could have told them in their own words.”
