Meet Pete Arens, your StorySaver

Pete started StorySave Productions after seeing how telling a life story impacted his ill father. Recounting life’s memories was a welcome distraction for him while battling cancer in the hospital. However, Pete never finished capturing all the stories and memories he hoped to as his father passed unexpectedly.

Pete’s father Richard was a passionate genealogist (someone who studies family history). He spent hours each week researching his ancestry to find names, dates, and places. However, rarely did he look for the stories behind these people. Pete’s interest was in learning the life experiences of his ancestors, not just where they came from.

As Pete’s life took unexpected turns and new challenges arose, he was looking for direction and purpose.  It wasn’t until he started to reflect on his own life story that he found answers, healing, and the inspiration to start StorySave.

Pete’s hope is that through capturing the stories and life experiences of others, he will be able to connect and strengthen families and communities for generations.
