Hello Patricia, wow, thank you for the great comment, I have been very fortunate, and have all the photos and historic documents of my family history. Working on vintage photos is a challenge but its well worth it.

What a wonderful story and amazing photo!! You did a great job on it. I love the mood captured and the story behind it. Many women were left without their men after WWI, sadly. Tragic time in history, but you have this timeless memento of a happier moment, and for that you are lucky. Great job, Michael!!
