I loved working with Marion Davenport to capture her life story in a beautiful book. What a delight! I also enjoyed working with her adult children, Bill Davenport and Amy Hamdan, as we added photos and designed the book.

From Marion Davenport:

“I was nervous to tell my tale. Julie was so easy to talk to, and I really enjoyed our sessions together. She was very non-judgmental, even when I told her my secrets. And when I couldn’t remember basic info about my family history, she was a genealogy gem! But best of all, she shaped my story so it wasn’t bor-ing!”

From Amy Hamdan:

“It’s a daunting task to chronicle someone’s big, fat, messy life. Julie did it with ease. And let’s just say that our family is not the easiest to please, but Julie handled us with grace and patience. We had her working odd hours to accommodate our schedule, which she did without hesitation. We were delighted with the finished product, and we were delighted with her.”

 

From Bill Davenport:

“My mother was getting older, and she wanted to leave her life story for future generations. I’m so glad we found Julie. It was such a pleasure to work with her. She did a great deal of research and guided us through step by step. The book looks great, my mother is thrilled, and we all enjoyed every step of the process together.”
