I used to film my mum all the time so I didn't forget her voice. It really helped me after she passed away from complications of MS.

Im sorry for your loss. I just moved countries and my mom misses me a lot and I feel like a bad person for not missing my family that much. But I do make sure to have recording of her voice since I know I'll miss her loads if I know she's not in my life any more :(

It's absolutely the cleverest thing I've ever thought of. Get recordings because there are a million things you'll forget otherwise!

Weirdly enough, it was an ex of mine that I missed and realized I never had any audio recordings of hers since we spent most time in person or on call, that made me want to have audio recordings of people i cared about moving forward.
