Nicole and Diana, RootsTech 2019
RootsTech 2020’s theme is “Discover the Story of You.” Nicole and I have attended since 2017 and heard many inspirational stories from the celebrity speakers. Some of my favorites: Patricia Heaton, LeVar Burton, Doris Kearns Goodwin, and CeCe Moore.
RootsTech 2020 will feature keynote speaker, David Hume Kennerly, Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer. He has photographed ten United States presidents and will have fascinating stories to share.
Nicole and I are excited to be returning as presenters, ambassadors, and exhibitors. In 2020, Family Locket will have a booth in the Expo Hall for the entire conference and we look forward to meeting many of you!
