My father died 12 days before my 13th birthday, cancer. My 7th grade tech teacher (also sadly now dead from leukemia) sent me home with a camcorder to interview dad, to record memories, because his father died young too. What did I do? I sat in a chair and pointed it at the tv and recorded episodes of Battlestar Galactica (1978) reruns on tv... Sigh. Although, dad was pretty sick then from both the cancer and treatment and I'm not sure I would have wanted to revisit those videos anyway so maybe it's a blessing in disguise. As it stands though, I only have one recording of his voice - an answering machine recording and I do think it would be nice to have more of his voice. I guess I'll have to wait for time machines.
