Life Story Books

A book of personal memories, a tribute to a remarkable senior, a treasured family recipe collection, a child’s picture book — whatever you have in mind, Brighten My Day works with you to make your life story project (or that of a special family member) a reality.

Each life story project is unique. It may be a lengthy one or a collection of short anecdotes. The number of interviews, photo selection, writing, editing, design layout and print processes are all taken into consideration when establishing a fee for a custom-designed professional product.

Call or email to discuss your life story idea and request a free estimate.

Reminiscence Roadshow

The Reminiscence Roadshow is designed for a small group of 6-10 participants, allowing each to fully enjoy the hands-on experience and have ample opportunity to chat, laugh, listen and share their personal recollections.

Sessions are creatively facilitated by Brighten My Day and themed around familiar aspects of daily life: Oh, How Things Have Changed, Stirring up Memories in the Kitchen, Playthings of the Past and Stepping out in Style.

Call or email to book the Reminiscence Roadshow at your retirement community, continuing care setting or adult day program.

$95 per one-hour themed session
