Sharing Gratitude and Kindness
Memorable.
Impactful.
On April 4, 2025, Randy Shawn Fisher awoke, grieving the sudden loss of his 93-year old father-in-law. Joseph Mel Rimmer, of Highland Park, NJ was a kind and gentle soul, much loved and appreciated. (Read his obituary.)
Randy thought it would be great if he had a video record of how Mel appreciated their relationship.Randy also thought how meaningful it would be to share other people's Appreciation Stories - it would bring happiness and joy, and perhaps help with his own grief.
The Appreciation Story was born.
Now, I am on Instagram speaking to people, listening to meaningful experiences, and interviewing them about their Appreciation Stories.Please follow me on Instagram.
