"The service and the product was great. We really enjoy being able to listen to recordings that are over 30 years old. Without Bernie's help, the tapes would continue to sit in a box with no one listening to them. I highly recommend Grand Memory Lane!"

"I recorded my mom talking about the family history on cassette tapes back in 1990. These were very precious to me and I wanted to share them with my brother and sister, but cassettes are so outdated and I had no way to copy them to CD. Luckily I found Grand Memory Lane Studios online. Bernie Swenson was great to work with; he promptly answered my e-mails and came right to my home to pick up the tapes. He also took a couple of family photos and scanned them to create covers for the cases. The work was done well, quickly, and for a very reasonable fee. Now my priceless family memories are safely stored on CD and I know my siblings will be thrilled with the gift. I highly recommend Grand Memory Lane Studios - thank you, Bernie!"

"I wanted some unusual arrangements, Bernie worked with me until we got them just right. He let me be as much of the process as I wanted to be, without predetermined expectations. My relatives loved the their gifts of memories!"

"I found an old cassette tape while going through my parent's estate. It was from my 1972 senior year high school commencement concert. My friend and 1 performed a memorable piano duet in this concert and I wanted to surprise her with it for her birthday. Bernie did a wonderful job transferring it to CD. I was amazed at the quality of sound that Bernie was able to pull out of such an old tape. He completed the job quickly and the cost was very affordable. I highly recommend Grand Memory Lane Studios. It's wonderful to be able to preserve and share this piece of history. Bernie Swenson is the definition of quality work and customer delight!"

"The service and attention to detail were excellent and exceeded my expectations. I had some old LP albums from my college days converted to CD. The sound quality was great and there was even a copy of the front and back of the old album covers made for the CD case and the songs were listed on the inside. I'm so glad I did it and pardon the pun, but it will give me many grand memories!"

"My husband and I both appreciate the wonderful job that you did. The DVD labeling and the DVD cases are above and beyond what I was expecting and are a work of art in and of itself! Thank you again for the great job that you did in recovering the memories that was on those tapes. If I ever have need for such transferring again, I will certainly contact you first about do the job."

" I also wanted to express our appreciation for all the patience and diligence working our wedding album. Your professionalism was outstanding and the finished product exceeded our expectations. We will treasure this album for many years thanks to your hard work and dedication."

"Bernie Swenson's firm, Grand Memory Lane, put over 800 35 mm slides of mine on two DVDs and a CD. These slides were from the years 1952 to 1974 that were in storage and not being looked at. He did a wonderful job, using the captions that I provided for each picture. The two DVDs provided me with over two hours of entertainment, looking at slides that I had not looked at for 50 years. All this was done at a most reasonable price. Since many of the slides were of family, they are enjoying them also. Mr. Swenson also provided me with two binders—one with all the original slides in protective clear envelopes and the other with thumbnail prints of each slide, also in protective clear envelopes.
Anyone needing their memories put into a permanent format, I would highly recommend Grand Memory Lane and Mr. Swenson."
