The Memories Institute - Making meaning of life's events

“You are the link that ties the past and the future together. Think of how important your role is in giving continuity

to your traditions and stories”

~Anita Young Hallman
Self Preservation

Who or what exists today is the culmination of all that has come before now. Family traditions and organizational cultures are built upon shared values and experiences that have been passed through generations. Each story is unique and deserves to be told. There is life giving power with the intentional decision to pass these on to those who will come after.

We help individuals, families, organizations and communities to:

Keep legacies alive
Re-connect, give expression to and record life’s events
Creatively document and make permanent the stories and values they want to pass on
Explore and give voice to that which matters
Appreciate the contributions of themselves and others
Validate the purposes for which they exist

We specialize in clear, concise, easy to read and creative formats that tell stories. We thrive on learning about what’s important to people, organizations and communities and then making it come alive to give meaning.
