About This is not depressing for me, Gary and Larry are/were my brothers and I will never forget them. This picture was taken while home visiting my family last summer, and my sister sent me the following email after seeing it, she said she wanted it posted with the picture, and I felt it belonged here too, in honor of our dear brothers.

In memory of:
Gary Neil October 29, 1954—May 24, 1977 and:
Lawrence James October 7, 1952—May 2, 1978

Two wonderful brothers who shall never be forgotten. It is with much love that we honor them.

Dear Linda, Hi it's me Nancy, your favorite sister ha ha.
This picture speaks volumes for me, first the fact that it is my son and grandson, hey, what can I say. :) We grew up on that lake, lots of memories. That beach alone brings back so many memories only I will never forget. You, my sweet sis, and I both recovered 2 brothers out of that lake, a sad reality, bitter moment's for our whole family.

To see their nephew and great nephew standing there like that makes me wonder if they're feeling some sort of connection, it's so surreal for me to look at this pic. It makes me feel overwhelmed in so many ways, it brought tears to my eyes, actually, to my chin. :)

Way to go Lin, it's history, it's a story of moving on and just stopping and observing and absorbing the moment and it's true, it is the present. This pic will touch me in my heart forever!

If only you knew how much it would touch just one person. Thank you, this is an example of 'a pic is worth a thousand words!' Another thank you for allowing me to slave over the hot barbeque while you were out playing with your camera! :) Really!
I love you Linda, Nancy~ Hugs

P.S. I'm sorry if this is too emotional, hope not to embarass you. Later sweetie.

Thanks for letting me share this with you, it helps to keep their memories alive...hugs :)

A beautiful image in it's own right, Linda, but made all the more so by the story behind it. It shows how our "hobby" can mean so much more to us and those close to us than a mere pastime. Well done, in all respects.
Dave.


Saeed Al Shamsi   {K:47644} 9/15/2006
That is one part of the photos either bring a sad memos or a wonderful moment of our life, refreshing our faculty of retaining and recalling past experience in our life.
Even for me just reading ” your sis words and your reply” and looking at the image, my mind wonder around the scene a play back to what you wrote.
Great memo of our human life it shows how much we as human needs each other more than hate.
Best wishes.
Saeed

Oh wow Linda, what a poignant 'about' and your beautifully toned composition is so in keeping with the solemnity of the occasion and your treasured memories. You, your sister and family will all have moved on but it is moments like these that serve well in perpetuating your memories of their lives. Thank-you so much for sharing this with us my dear sweet Linda as it is far more than just an amazing image. A great big hug and my very best wishes to you as always.....Ray X

Thank you dear friend, very much appreciated, their light shines even today...:)


Mary Brown   {K:68622} 10/6/2006
The love between you and your sister is so precious and obvious. Your About is touching and sincere. How horrible to have lost two brothers in the lake. I lost a brother in a car accident so perhaps have some sense of your feelings, although no one else can ever know exactly how we feel. What a very touching picture with the golden tones and gentle details in the people. Marvelous.

Wow, what a great homage you paid here! My condolences, thoughts and prayers! I have a similar one with same thoughts behind a memory immortalized like this, on my 'folio from a long time ago (when that special someone was around).

Memories to hang-on to....
