Tributes

It is easy, in the modern world, to forget to acknowledge people in lasting ways.  We are surrounded by amazing people, but we don't take the time to document them in the ways that would honor them.  It's even better when we can offer these tribute before they pass away, so they know how much they are appreciated.


This is a retirement book for a college professor.  We got a list of all his students, in the 40+ years he taught, sent everyone we could find an email, and got back hundreds of responses from all over the world.  His students told him where they'd ended up, how he'd helped them, how fondly they remembered him.  Now he has that powerful tribute, better than a watch, more meaningful than a plaque.
