Several siblings and I hired Della Hilton, founder of Legacy Autobiography, to do the layout and design of a book on our deceased Mother’s life. The book contains tributes by our Mother’s siblings, friends, children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and others. We also had about 350 pictures from the time our Mother was a toddler to shortly before her death at age 89 that were to be part of the book. Della took our information, did a life sketch from my mother’s diary, was able to make the pictures look fabulous, worked with us to identify each person in each picture so that would be set forth, divided the book into segments of our mother’s life, added a table of contents, a section on our mother’s favorite recipes, and produced a priceless legacy and masterpiece that will speak to our mother’s posterity for generations to come. It turned out simply fabulous! She was easy to work with and made many suggestions, which she passed by a few of us that were giving her input. We sent out one section of the book in and email before determining how many orders to place. Everyone in our large family ordered books for themselves, children and grandchildren. Cousins and other relatives order a copy. We ordered 103 copies including the 5 extra I ordered. I now realize I should have ordered 20 extra. When the shipment came to my house for distribution to everyone, I open the first box and pulled out one of the hardcover books with a beautiful picture on the cover of my deceased mother. I began to go through it but could not get very far because I began to sob uncontrollably. Della is a real professional and cared about every detail of the project. I highly recommend her for projects like this one or any project dealing with a lot of pictures and text where her layout and design will turn something good into a masterpiece. The cost was very reasonable.
