Partnering with

Personal memoir preserves family history so your loved one’s story is captured for future generations.

Westgor Funeral Homes understands the value of story-telling and passing down wisdom from one generation to the next. Help your kids and grandkids understand how you succeeded or learned from your mistakes. Why not also tell them about the milestones in your life? Capturing the person’s voice, whether it be in a video or audio interview, or via printed text, is a powerful legacy to leave for future generations. You can’t buy that gift on Amazon or at the mall!

That’s why we’ve chosen to work with Steve Busalacchi, the former Wisconsin Public Radio reporter. He understands how to tell your story.

Steve is an award-winning author, writer and memoir specialist. Westgor Funeral Homes is pleased to partner with Steve to produce memoirs that will remain as a lasting family heirloom, easily reproduced for free for all family members and friends.

Here are the options for video, audio and print memoirs, at three production levels: Silver, Gold and Platinum.

Testimonials

“Steve Busalacchi Communications created a sensitive, powerful life history of my father. The best word to describe the project is "PRICELESS.”

Silver [5-minute produced video]

"Steve Busalacchi was able to interview my dad and create a booklet that was published and handed out at his funeral. My Dad's story was detailed with facts that touched the heart of my father's family and friends. They found the booklet to be wonderful and an excellent tribute to the man they knew."

"When I lost my wife of 33 years, Steve assisted me in creating a final letter to my beautiful wife and the mother of my children. Beautiful and well delivered were the words I heard over and over again at this dedication. The work that Busalacchi Communications did for my family was so creative that my family and friends described his story telling and writing as eloquent.”
