About Shirley...

Dear Friends,

Heritage Creations was born out of a desire and passion to preserve the memories of ordinary people. As I began recording and
transcribing the stories my father told me and eventually other family members and friends, I came to realize something very important – there are no “ordinary” people. God has created each one of us with uniqueness and every one of us has a story to tell that is “extraordinary”. After this realization, I felt the Lord leading me to help others tell their story.

Heritage Creations will create for you the priceless gift of your life story with the opportunity to tell, record, print and preserve. Imagine what a treasure it would be to have the story of yourself or your loved ones to hand down to future generations. A personal history becomes a family treasure and enables future generations to emulate the virtues and personal characteristics of their forebears. There is no greater opportunity to turn your children’s hearts closer to yours than by preserving your story. Your children will appreciate the gift of knowing about you, your successes, your failures, your joys, your thoughts, your trials, your peculiarities, your values and your dreams. Who knows, they may learn about themselves in the process!

Upon completing a Heritage Creation, you will have a written or recorded product that clearly states “This is who I am”. It is imperative to capture these precious lives now, before it is too late, before the memories fade or worse, before they are gone forever! Remember, starting tomorrow, today is already part of the past. Your descendants will cherish the ability to know you and where
they come from. If they are like me, the will read with great interest.

With the guidance and help of Heritage Creations it is not at all difficult to put your story into print. After all, you lived it, and it will enrich the remainder of your life and will mean the world to your children and children’s children. At Heritage Creations, “It’s your story and I’m sticking to it”! As your personal historian, it is my mission to passionately devote my time in preserving these memories for you and future generations to come.

Sincerely,
Shirley LaPlante
Personal Historian
