In My Heart (Memorial Style)

[VidQueen Profile Private messageWebsite]

Ever been trucking right along and then you see or read something that makes you stop in your tracks?

ProShow user Shaz North posted this quote on her facebook page the other day. As next week will mark the third anniversary of my Step Daughters passing, I literally stopped what I was working on for the past two days (sorry, client!) and created a video for my husband and his ex-wife. One quote turned into a 20 minute video.

For anyone producing Memorials, this quote is a keeper.

Excellent Jennifer !! I wish I had seen this when I did the memorial for my mom some years ago (which was how I got started with Proshow back in version 2 ). Says it perfectly.

them again.

I'm just a sucker for a good quote. Like I said, this one just stopped me in my tracks. My Dad was the first person who was really close to me who passed away (my step daughter died 5 months before I met her Dad, so I only know her through pictures) and I can now really relate to the "hole" that you feel when you just want to hear their voice or give them a hug...just one more time.

Hi Jennifer, well I sat and cried like a baby watching this, having lost my sister last year, and we lost my husbands sister a few months ago, he's in the hospital for his transplant so I'm alone watching this, the tears just poured...
I have watched your memorial show for your step daughter and now these little clips of her..just made me cry!
I loved the quote, the style is wonderful to.
hugggs, Chrissy

Jennifer . . . I produced a memorial slide show a couple of years ago for a co-worker who died while he and his wife were celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary in Hawaii. I was able to include pictures taken during the years he worked for the agency, a video clip and also a voice recording that was used in our automated answering system.

After I completed the show and distributed copies for all the friends and family I received a thank you note from his wife saying she was so appreciative of what I had done and plays the show just to hear his voice.

Your memorial quote is . . . "right on"

Jennifer,
Last year I lost my brother who was also my best friend, and I still am not able to delete his email address from my address book. If I could talk to him just one more time....no, one more time would not be enough. This quote brings to mind that old Bear Bryant commercial for AT&T. I didn't appreciate the significance of it way back then, but I sure do now. No reason for us not to call those we love every day. And your quote stopped me in my tracks too.

I guess everyone who is old enough to have lost someone close to them can relate in someway.

My Dad just passed away 6 weeks ago and every time my Step Mom calls me my iPhone displays my Dads name and picture. It takes a couple of rings for me to realize that its my Step Mom using my Dads phone. For a nano second I think that my Dad is calling

Nice Jennifer. It's a very good quote. Nicely put together style. I just lost an uncle 2 days ago (brain tumor). The youngest of 7.

Dale,
I'm so sorry to hear of your loss. So recent, too.

I hope you and your family can find comfort in each other at this time.

((hug))

Dale - what Jen says
It's tough getting to that age where we are losing parents/siblings (I'm there too).

Jennifer, so many of us have people who have gone missing from our lives, and with this you've created something to help express the feelings of loss. Wonderfully inspired and wonderfully done!
