Music to Process, Grieve and Calm

Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings is one of the most recognizable pieces of classical music in the world.

Lighter Living Task #14 Legacy Album

I created a physical and digital legacy album for each of my parents. I put the very best photos of their lives from start to finish in order in one photo album that could be viewed at their celebration of life event and for the family to cherish for years to come. I did a physical album and a photo slideshow digitally simultaneously.
