Description
A large portion of our population are in the golden years of their life and have lived through unprecedented changes during their life span that has never been recorded. They have an amazing history locked in their minds that most family members are unaware of. Every year families lose their parents before they have gleaned valuable histories of family trees, events, memories and historical values that can never be recovered. Most family members are unaware of the amazing history of these great saints. Here is a resource that captures a lifetime of detail that can be passed down for generations to come.
How we communicate life's lessons to our children, may determine the course set for our descendants' own lives. Little may remain to remind anyone of an ordinary life-a cold, hard tombstone, a few dog-eared photos, perhaps some possessions, unless written down. The thoughts and beliefs that once defined an individual, disappear with his or her last breath.
To My Family: My Reflections, Values, Experiences and Family History is a practical, user-friendly tool that will allow families to capture the rich legacy of their family members for the conveyance of wisdom, knowledge, family history, understanding and the experience of beloved family members before it is too late.

Person
A 1967 graduate of Acadia University in Wolfville, Nova Scotia, Diane began her working years as a Social Worker in Orillia, Ontario, but migrated to teaching Physical Education and Guidance until her family began to arrive and she transitioned to full-time motherhood. Keeping her hand in fitness, she was one of the first to do aerobics to music with her TV program, Total Fitness - Body, Mind, and Spirit. After her return to the Lord in 1978, television and writing became excellent avenues for the sharing of her faith. Following the publishing of her first book, My Father's Child, she subsequently wrote over 30 books, including the nine-booklet Predator-Proof Your Family series. A frequent guest on 100 Huntley Street, she also hosted a program called, Raiders of the Lost and hosted Nite Lite Wednesday nights for seven years. In 1988, deeply concerned about the secular humanism being introduced into school curriculums and the issue of abortion, she ran for a Provincial Seat in Parliament, gaining a significant opportunity to make her voice heard. Diane has most recently published a book titled, For Such a Time as This, subtitled, The Interwoven History of Crossroads, 100 Huntley Street, Circle Square TV & Ranches - and LifeNet Ministries.Diane's life has been an amazing journey through deep, deep valleys and high mountains. There has always been one more hill to climb. when
