Personal Historian in Merritt Island, Cocoa & Cocoa Beach

Space Coast Stories helps families in Merritt Island, Cocoa, Cocoa Beach, and Cape Canaveral preserve a parent, grandparent, veteran, or loved one in their own words.

Stories rooted in this part of Florida

This part of Brevard holds some of the region’s most distinctive memories: citrus groves, the river, surfing, old Cocoa, port life, and families whose work at Kennedy Space Center shaped American history.

A local interview can happen in a comfortable home, with family photographs and meaningful objects close at hand. That setting often brings out details that would never appear on a questionnaire.
