A memory is lost when a family member passes away before the memory has been shared and saved. Don’t wait another day.

Consider family memories you don’t want to lose:

  • Think about important memories from your life events, videos, stories, or photos that are not already recorded.
  • Prayerfully consider who in your family has a family heirloom, a photo, or a story that could be lost.

What to do:

  • Offer to help save those memories.
  • Ask a family member to talk about family memories.
  • Have a family night where you retell family stories and record them.
  • Record (audio or video) older family members talking about their life events.
  • Digitize a photo and have a family member tell the story behind it. Who is in the photo? What is happening? Then upload the photo, tag it, and save the story on FamilySearch as a Memory. Learn how to add audio to pictures on FamilySearch.
