"Since I was a little girl I have cherished learning about my parents' lives and my family history through their stories. When my Dad got his computer after retiring, I asked him to start "my" special project and write the stories I have loved to hear over the years. My Dad is a great story teller so I thought this was a simple request - but every time I asked - he said it was not easy to decide where to start and years went by.
Generation to Generation is now part of my parents' legacy to their only daughter. The beauty of this journal is that it provided my parents with an easy road map to capture their amazing life journey of faith, love and wisdom. Thank you for creating this amazing work of love that captures some of the most precious thoughts a daughter can hope to ever have in this world!"

“I love (Generation to Generation). It is
a way to learn more about my parents and a way to teach
my children more things about me. I believe this is
an excellent gift and plan on getting many more of the
books for other members of our family.”

"We found the Generation to Generation book to be an invaluable resource for our family. With an aging octogenarian grandmother living in our home, and our only daughter preparing to leave for college, this book provided a way for our daughter and mother to spend some quality time together - putting things in order - as each prepared for a new phase of their lives. They spent hours talking and writing. The completed book will forever remind my daughter of her years growing up with Grandma living in her home. Thank you Gerard, for providing the means for these two to connect and write down their memories."

“Celebrating Success made me think about
my own definition of success and the importance of pursuing
one’s passion. Celebrating Success is a powerful
book because it captures the wisdom and insight of over
100 world leaders and celebrities who have achieved
their dreams. Even though everyone’s definition
of success is interestingly different, the message that
resonated the most to me was to follow one’s passion.
Any book that makes us think of what is most important
in our lives and how to pursue it, is a must read.”

"Gerard Smith has done an excellent job getting
readers to define success for themselves. So many wander
through life wanting the elusive prize of success, but
don't get it because they haven't even asked themselves
what it means. Mr. Smith's message is clear: it means
different things to different people. But one thing
is sure—you must define it before you can live
it. Excellent book. Stunning cast. This book sits face-out
on my shelf.”

“A must book for everyone... Everyone's definition
on the meaning of success: Troy Aikman defines it with
one line, while the Prime Minister of West Cameroon
Solomon Tandeng Muna defines it in three and one half
pages.”

“This is life's ultimate bottom-line book.
A great thought provoker and conversation starter.”

“Excellent book because it shows what success
means to many different individuals. It is a most insightful
book and is a great aid to people who have been downsized
from their jobs. I recommend it also to people struggling
to find their mission in life. A worthy book to have
on one's mantle.”

“I purchased two of the Celebrating Success
books, one for me and one for my sales manager. What
an amazing compilation of letters. I found it inspiring.
In my opinion, anybody who is in the business of serving
others should have this book. This book instills growth
in one’s heart and mind. The book in itself is
a gift. Thank you . . . for compiling such a masterpiece.”

“I sat down with the intention of simply skimming
Celebrating Success and found myself intrigued…
I started taking notes and then more notes. My planned
30 minute skim became a three hour study. I realized
that success is often a moving target… Thanks
for getting me to think about success in general and
in my life in particular.”

"Your book is very uplifting and nourishes the soul. I have used the book in many ways and found that it helped me to open a line of communication with a prospect who had a closed door. He loved it."
