Susan Rosano’s Family Story Projects are marvelous. They provide creative, fun and delightful ways for individuals and family members to explore what is important and fulfilling in their lives. Through composing poems that evoke meaningful personal moments, making beautiful family collages or designing colorful posters, depicting life paths and key events, people of all ages can reflect on the fabric of their lives. Susan’s projects allow individuals to explore what inspires them, celebrate the challenges they’ve faced and the successes they’ve enjoyed and get in touch with lessons they’ve learned. Engaging in any of these Family projects can leave participants moved and touched by their own lives and with wonderful works of art they can share with others!

The seniors in our residential community spent 6 weeks working with Susan. They made some amazing story/poems about their past and had fun doing so! The social time, the stories they told, and the fun with watercolors made this one of the best programs all year!

Susan worked with our dad in a hospice program. She patiently wrote his fun, little stories, created some artful watercolor background on the page and then matted and framed the stories, which are now hanging on our walls. Susan's Personal Historian work is excellent and she brings more to it than you might expect. It is well worth the price to engage Susan in this excellent life review for your loved one.

With these projects, we made some great family heirlooms and documented many fun stories that families never heard before. This is a super great group activity and people learned more about each other than ever before with these activities
