Sad that the MY FAMILY Booklet is no longer available online after spending hours creating it.

Ellen Kovac said: Dear Family Search Staff, Thank you for all your good service! I am happy with Family Search and find it helpful. Imagine my surprise when I discovered that after spending hours composing my "My Family Stories that Bring us Together" online, that lovely book...no longer available in that great format online! I understand that my stories are still under each individual in my tree, however, if someone in the future, wanted to have those stories in that wonderful booklet form they would not be able to have it in that neatly organized format. Yes, the stories are there under each individual, but it was so wonderful to have them is such an orderly format. AND I am SO GLAD that I printed the booklet when I had the chance.
I don't really understand why, when most of the younger population are on the computer and prefer it to writing things in hard copy. Would you consider bringing it back as a permanent fixture?
