Meaningful 65th birthday present gives voice to a winning wrestling team
When varsity wrestling coach Timothy Parker said goodbye to his seniors at his teams end of year award ceremony, it also happened to be his 65th birthday. On that memorable day, he received a personalized 65th birthday keepsake that was far more meaningful than any wrestling trophy his wrestlers or fellow coaches could ever give him. He received a special CD filled with the voices of his colleagues, his graduating wrestlers, and their parents, expressing their thanks and warm wishes. The recordings ranged from funny to sentimental, and showed him what he had meant to his team.
“I go out there and urge my wrestlers to give 200 percent every day. I’ve always focused on the wrestlers, and when they gave me this gift it made it clear how much my philosophy meant to them personally”.
The wrestlers and their parents wanted to give the coach a surprise present that was very personal. However, with frantic schedules, the wrestlers and their parents knew that the group gift would have to be simple for everyone to contribute to.
The gift the coach received is called LifeOnRecord.
Team mom, Julie Gorski, got the idea when her husband gave her a LifeOnRecord CD as a thoughtful birthday gift.
The process is simple: friends and family call a toll-free number and are directed to record a favorite memory, wish, or story. Theres no limit on the number of callers that can phone-in or on the total number of recordings you receive. You can download the recordings for free to your computer using iTunes so that you can make your own compact disc, or LifeOnRecord can create a keepsake CD with a personalized label and metal case. An unlimited plan with free download capability into iTunes costs $49.99, or an unlimited plan with a keepsake CD costs $74.98.
It is a unique, affordable service that allows you to create a highly personal gift with ease.
“The wrestlers and their families that gave me this gift mean a lot to me, and this is the perfect way for me to remember them and their impact after my coaching days are over. The mom who organized and put this together is my hero”.
If you’d like to be a hero to your loved one, you can purchase LifeOnRecord and give them a unique birthday group gift.
