When words are hard to find, this gives the family something to hold, read aloud and pass around: the world as it was on their last day, and the life they lived before it.
To be honest I was a sceptic, I thought here we go, another Facebook scam. I must say I was totally impressed by the pack I ordered for my Mum…

Something to Hold On To
On the Day You Passed
A front page for the day they passed: the news, the Prime Minister and monarch, the number one song, a flower of remembrance and the everyday prices of the time — finished with our certificate of authenticity seal.
A Life in Numbers
From their date of birth to the day they passed: the years, weeks, full moons and heartbeats of a life — printed beside a cultural snapshot of the books, television and fashion of that year.
For the Service, and Long After
Frame page one for the funeral or memorial, beside the photos and flowers. Then keep the folder for the children and grandchildren, with a copy for everyone who loved them.
The World They Knew
Moments in history that share the same date, and what life cost that year — wages, house prices, petrol and the weekly shop. Built from Australian records, not overseas ones.

I bought the birthday archive pack for my soon- to -be 92 year old dad because seriously, what do you get a 92 year old for their birthday??
I love the information that is in it and I am sure my dad will love finding out all about the day he came into the world and which famous people share his birth date.
Great gift idea. I am definitely going to be purchasing more for the rest of the family.

I have just received two Birth Day Archive Packs and I’m delighted. I’m giving one to my very close, old friend of over almost 60 years and the other one is for my daughter who turns 47 in a couple of weeks. I have a feeling both will be very happy with their gifts.
