Hi there! I’m Sherri.
Let’s walk this journey together.
I am a genealogist and photo organizer who is passionate about organizing, preserving and sharing family photos and stories, one at a time.
The ‘Legend of the Starfish’ tells of a man walking along the beach. He sees a boy in the distance, grabbing something off the sandy path and hurling it into the sea.
-What are you doing? inquired the man.
-Throwing starfish back to the sea. If they are left out here, they will dry up and die.
-What difference does it make? There are too many starfish. You won’t be able to save them all.
The boy reached down, picked up another starfish, hurled it into the sea, and replied,
-I made a difference to that one!
Each family memory is precious. You are not alone. You are not behind. I can help you.
Let’s begin!
