Why this exists

A letter from Tami

Founder, My Silver Circle — Lyndon, Illinois

“I built My Silver Circle because I know how quickly ordinary moments become memories we wish we had saved.”

In 2023, I lost my mom and two of her sisters to cancer. Since then, our family has also lost one of my mom’s brothers.

That kind of loss changes a family. It changes the quiet moments, the kitchen table, and the way ordinary days feel.

But it also showed me how much the real pieces of a life matter — the stories, names, faith, laughter, recipes, and memories we keep reaching for after someone is gone.

The memories I wished I had saved are the heart of why My Silver Circle exists.

My dad lost his wife, but he has kept moving. Not because he forgot her — he never will.

Her name still comes up in regular conversation, just like family always does. Some days the memories are heavy. Some days they bring tears. Other days they bring laughter.

That is real life after loss.

That is part of why My Silver Circle matters to me.

My Silver Circle is not about replacing family, faith, or real human connection.

It is one familiar place to talk naturally and slowly build My Life Memories — the stories, names, recipes, prayers, moments, and little details that deserve to be kept close.

It is for seniors, but not only for seniors. It is for the young mom living the years she will someday want to remember, the dad who wants to leave stories for his son, the grandparent remembering what shaped them, and anyone who does not want ordinary moments to disappear.

Why this matters now

Technology is changing fast. Even now, it can be hard to know what is real — voices can be copied, videos can be changed, and people can feel watched, sorted, automated, or left behind.

That is not the kind of future I want My Silver Circle to feed.

My hope is that My Silver Circle becomes an anchor in the middle of all that change — a calm place to build My Life Memories and hold on to real faith, real conversations, and real human connection.

AI should not lead us away from ourselves.

Used with care, it can help us remember who we are, where we came from, and who still matters.

My son Josh is co-founder of My Silver Circle with me, and he built the technology that makes it possible.

He is a pastor, a business owner, a busy dad, and my son. Without him, this would still be something I carried in my heart and talked about at the kitchen table.

Together, we are building My Silver Circle from real life — from family, faith, loss, ordinary days, memories, and hope.

Family at the kitchen table

I sew with my dad now. We make quilts, pouches, and bowl cozies at that same kitchen table. We sign everything “Tami & Dad.”

That table has always been a place where life happens — conversations, stories, laughter, tears, faith, and the ordinary things that keep a person going.

That kitchen table is my Silver Circle.

My Silver Circle is that feeling — one familiar place to talk, remember, pray, laugh, and build My Life Memories while life is being lived.

If you want a place where ordinary conversations can become My Life Memories, we are building it with care.
