Reviews: 
Nona's Story: Your Story
is a guided journal that helps readers examine their
own lives in a much deeper way by taking them on a journey into "Nona's"
life.
Through
her story readers are led to develop insights into their own story, and the implications
it has for their lives.
Dr.
Rich Handley, author of Optimizing People and founder of EQ University
This book is an excellent opportunity for children and grandchildren to deepen
their relationship with their aging parents and grandparents; to capture the past
and preserve it for future generations. A 'must have' for every family. It will
have more information than the 'family bible.'

Nona's Story: Your Story
offers you gifts for yourself and your loved ones.
This is a useful and touching work. It presents two benefits to those who work
with this guided journey. First, you'll have the lovely opportunity to get to
know Nona, Rosana
and a tantalizing bit of Croatia. Second, it offers the reader who works with
the clearly stated reflective questions the opportunity to know yourself better
and to provide a significant gift for your loved ones.

Nona's Story: Your Story
allows the reader to gain a deeper self awareness and sense of accomplishment,
even completion, about their life. Nona's
Story: Your Story is a starting point for
a warm conversation with loved ones about life, as well as their personal truths
and deeper meanings…I would recommend this book to friends for whom family is
very important. Nona's
Story: Your Story will make a beautiful and
treasured gift for anyone who wants to create a lasting family legacy with a loved
one. What a warm, tender way to share history and wisdom down through the generations!

Nona's Story: Your Story-
what a loving tribute to the powers of the immediate and extended human experience!
From Nona, through Rosana and out to the reader, this offering connects us all
through story, values and love. What
a gem to feel a part of another person's family. What a gift to be given a way
to record our own.

Nona's Story: Your Story-
is a "must buy" for any parent or grandparent! As a Financial Planner, specializing
in Estates, I hear too many stories from those left behind. So many questions
would be answered, if "they" had only documented their life. Every one of my senior
clients will receive a copy to leave a simple and enjoyable legacy for their loved
ones.

Nona's Story : Your Story
does what it says; it shares a wonderful life story and invites the reader to
have the same experience, to whatever depth they are comfortable. Nona's Story
is inviting and non-judgmental. What a gift!

I love conversations that have depth and meaning
and this book supports conversation that is rich and meaningful. Weaving the personal
stories between the questions adds huge richness to the experience of doing it.
It also
helped me remember how important it is to ask these questions of our grandparents'
and parents' generation as there will come a time when they are gone and their
stories will not be told. The book has huge value for everyone to do.

Full of heart, full of positive energy - a tribute and an honouring. Nona's
Story: Your Story is very touching, intimate,
private, the whole family connection is wonderful.
A
very poignant and meaningful piece. The feelings came through. Your
grandmother is here assisting the rest of us, showing us how to be…her light shines
through as we encounter her on every page....

This book ... shows us how to record the essence
of someone we love and cherish for all time. Guided journals will contribute to
the historic record of our society. Having
lost both parents, I realize even more what I could have had. (Nona's
Story: Your Story) ...will allow people to have
insight into friends and loved ones which may not be revealed in daily interaction.
It guides us easily to knowing someone more. Mary

It's a wonderful testament to the rich heritage of love, learning, and traditions
which are passed down through the generations.

It's so much like the people I know and the place I grew up in - it's like time
travel for me. I love your Nona and can't stop crying. You are blessed with such
a gift. I am touched with how you realize that. God Bless you.

I read Nona's Story: Your Story
and just cried. I had to put it down. You so clearly put into words how I would
describe my own grandmother and how I feel about her. I
was shocked by how many questions I now have, that could easily slip away unanswered
at any time.
