"My first recollection of encountering a 'Memory Mine' was after my divorce. I was filing out some form, and when I got to the 'Emergency Contact Information,' section, I lost it. I didn't know who others should contact if something happened to me. My first thought was, 'Wow, I'm all alone now.' My second thought was, 'I wasn't expecting that realization to hit me so hard. I didn't even see it coming.'" - James Jeffley, Author
