  3. Oh, those are lovely pictures and you must be so glad to have them. We celebrated my parents' 50th in August of 2008. My dad passed away shortly after, in November. I'm sure your folks are both smiling proudly on you now for such a tribute.

  8. Isn't nice that photos can take us back in time to a moment we never experienced and introduce us to people we never knew. Lives captured and shared. Thank you.
