FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

LOCAL BUSINESS HONORS SENIORS 100^th BIRTHDAY’S WITH FREE BIOGRAPHY VIDEO

Living Scrapbooks Inc., a Holly Michigan based company that specializes in the production of DVD and VHS videos from your photos, is offering a special free birthday gift to seniors turning 100 years old; a Living Scrapbook  video based on their life.

Bill Andrews, Managing Partner of Living Scrapbooks, said “The idea came after recently completing a birthday video for a man in South Holland, IL.  If you knew James Dockery today, you would know him as an elevator operator.   After working with his daughter and viewing his life history in photos we learned Mr. Dockery had a very robust life; distinguished military officer, honored police officer pioneering PAL and children’s programs in his area, and contacts with celebrities such as Mohammad Ali and Count Basie through his active political and civil rights life.  He is a great man whose life story has gone unsung”.

Andy Warhol said “in the future everyone will be famous for 15 minutes”.  “By offering this free service to those whom reach 100 years we can celebrate their 15 minutes of fame with a video based upon photos and music from their life”.

Living Scrapbooks ®   are a multi-media expression of your true feelings towards someone through the selection of photos, video, songs, spoken word audio, mementos (e.g. newspapers, programs, children's artwork) and titles/verses.  For more information go to livingscrapbooks.tripod.com or call 248-396-4515.
