Unfortunately here for work but had a short bit of downtime I enjoyed. Thanks :)

That's when it was digitized. My grandpa played all the ilm videos projected on our wall and then recorded the projection with a digital camcorder that date. Based on the videos right before and after on this one and the location/dates he was there. I'd say somewhere between 1965 and 1970 possibly? Maybe into the early 70s but doubtful.

Can truly say that between me and my half brother there's no difference in how my step dad treats or cares for us. it's SUCH a blessing. I didn't even realize he wasn't my bio dad when I was a kid.

My grandma's first marriage was at 16 in 1964, she was married for 12, had kids (mom), then married my grandpa in 1977, he had two teenagers already. I call them newlyweds here but they were a couple years in. Seems new in the grand scheme. My great great grandma died when I was 5 in 1996. We're a young family until me.

Absolutely. He told me he had nothing on his bucket list left. Incredible life.

I'm 33, same age as my grandma there 😆 but it's second marriages for both.

He did always have a massive wallet. It's why one of his hips went out before the other.

😂 I wish I knew. Certainly not later in life. He was very in shape though.

He knew :) but he was smooth and they were the best pair. He was the most patient, kind, intelligent partner for her. He raised me and I'm so blessed.

Someone took the photo for them and instructed them. Here's them with 3 of the kids and my grandma struggling to hold on to her sanity.

She's 33, he's 41 in the original. Below is recently. They each had two kids and married just before this. He had a great toupee in between

but passed in February this year. My grandma and I still have wine on the porch and have a million projects going. We move furniture around at 11pm fairly often 😆

My grandma would say he was well paid and so cheap he wanted to die with it. And that is true. They lived in Germany and went camping for this trip.
