BOTS Legacy Stories
“I never thought I would tell these stories to anyone. I thought I had a bad life at times, but I realize now, I had a really good life. ”
Legacy Stories
We are currently in development of a program that would allow families to connect and find peace alongside those in their family who are at the end-of-life time. This is a signature program that will allow us to connect families with their elderly loved ones through the art of storytelling. We will extract those stories and transform them into a tangible book that allows the family to remember their loved one forever and find their way into grief with direction and peace. When the founder’s grandmother died, he found that this project was the only that him and his family could constructively embrace the elephant of death in a way that allowed everyone to end that chapter in life with dignity. It’s from these experiences that we aim to continue our work with others.
A current example of what these stories will look like can be found here. Its our hope we can bring this experience to any family who desires to connect with their loved one’s before they die.
