When my dad died we begged our mom to write down her life stories, partly to keep her busy. She recently passed and now we have 4 typed pages that describe some important moments of her life. A local historical society in her hometown requested to print some of her story because she recalled about almost being killed during the infamous '38 hurricane. Also, it turns out she was the 1st grandchild of the subject of a history recently written about her grandfather, who was a key leader of an Italian anarchist movement against Mussolini. I had no clue of this.
