Four years into my marriage with my husand, Tim, we received the news that he had been diagnosed with colon cancer. Cancer runs in my family: my grandmother, uncle, and great grand-father all died from it. My mother successfully fought off breast cancer. I was all too familiar with the pain of treatment and the very real possibility of death. After a couragious 4 year fight, including chemotherapy, radiation, several surgeries and all of the heartache, my beloved Tim passed away. I was devastated. I was 31, a widow, with two young girls to feed and raise completely on my own. As I reflected back on our marriage, I was struck at how much had changed. Before his diagnosis, we had exchanged our share of bickering and fights, as most couples do. However, after his diagnosis, I got a chance to rediscover my husband: how warm and funny he was. For his funeral, I really wanted to share that experience with his friends and family. I have always been an avid photographer, and had taken thousands of photos from our life together. I poured all of my grief into making a slideshow for his funeral that would share our many experiences with the attendees. Nearly everyone at Tim's funeral saw and complimented me on the DVD and several people asked for copies. I began playing with the idea of offering this as a service. I tried other concepts for DVD's. I produced one for each of my daughters' birthdays, a family trip we took, and even an anniversary gift. Four months after Tim's death, a friend gave me the news that her son had passed away. I offered to produce a similar DVD. Again, at the funeral nearly everyone commented on how touching, personal, and professional it was. Not long afterward, Never Forgotten Treasures, was born. A new life, after death. We now produce DVD's for a variety of life's events, including birthdays, memorials, graduations, trips, get-togethers, and anniversaries. Please peruse our site and then contact us to see what we can do for you. Remember: Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. Let us help you share those moments with your loved ones. Sincerely, Kristi Weber |

We've all heard the phrase "life after death", but I never thought
I'd experience it.
