A Scrapbook of Recollections

What happens when a lifetime of faith, family, and legacy is lovingly preserved, one letter at a time?

A Scrapbook of Recollections: Missives to My Family is a heartfelt Christian memoir written by John E. Huegel as a gift of appreciation to his beloved family. Blending personal narrative, spiritual reflection, and warm recollections, this legacy writing captures decades of wisdom, love, and shared history.

Each chapter is crafted as a personal letter, deeply thoughtful and uniquely tailored to his wife, Yvonne; their children David, Daniel, Joel, and Elena; their spouses; and their eleven grandchildren. From reflections on faith and memorable meals to stories of hiking, journaling, art, and pastoral ministry, the author invites readers into a deeply personal journey of Christian devotion and generational storytelling.

More than a collection of letters, this spiritual autobiography is a testimony of gratitude and grace. It is designed to be shared with each member of the Huegel family during their December 28, 2024, reunion aboard the Mariner of the Seas.

Perfect for Christian readers, memoir lovers, and those seeking meaningful reflections on life, A Scrapbook of Recollections offers comfort, insight, and inspiration for anyone longing to celebrate the bonds that truly matter.

Celebrate the joy of faith, memory, and family legacy-one missive at a time.
