From the Back Cover

Inspired by readings by daughters at a friend's funeral following his sudden passing, this "memoir journal" book allows the owner to preserve their memories of the past, their impressions of the present, and thoughts for the future. The hardcover book contains over 700 prompts and guided questions organized by 26 categories.

From the Inside Flap

After an ordinary family dinner and night of watching television with his three daughters, Erik fell asleep on his couch in Tiburon, California. At some moment before dawn, Erik passed away. He was 55, vibrant, full of laughter and light.
.
The final remembrance was given by Erik's eldest daughters, Lauren and Lily. The girls approached the podium and read from a book Erik secretly kept beside his bed, a private diary where he would capture memories, prescribe advice, scribble favorite quotes and share his deepest feelings.
.
That reading became the inspiration behind the book you now hold. Each of us has an Erik in our lives. Perhaps more than one: a beloved friend or family member who passes, perhaps suddenly without warning, perhaps slowly over time. We want to remember everything we can about those we love. And we hope that they will remember us. This book was created to facilitate more understanding, celebration and love, to capture a glimpse of ourselves, before time runs out.
