Heritage Album

HERITAGE ALBUM
Black and white photos aged with time now cover the pages before you. These pictures are a reminder of a moment in time and give us a past to hold onto.

The harders of times our loved ones endured as they steadily paved the way. Gratitude and respect they have earned and their legacy of love we can never repay.

Each photo has a story of personal happiness, heartaches, blood and sweat. But for their individual journeys and their legacies to live, the sacrifices we must not forget.

Hold onto the history stored within these precious pages and allow these stories to live. For these memories of trial and triumph are the most priceless treasure that one can give. By Wendy Silva

OLD PHOTOGRAPHS by Ernest Jack Sharpe
A box of faded photographs I opened yesterday, And instantly my memories were carried far away

To many friends and places, from years so long ago, As I sorted through those photographs of folks I used to know.

There were some of family members that are no longer here, and photographs of sweethearts I once thought very dear.

Thoughts swiftly raced and tumbled on things that are no more, As I daydreamed over photographs and happy days of yore.

If you could see your Ancestors All standing in a row, Would you be proud of them, or not, or don't you really know?

Some strange discoveries are made in climbing family trees. And some of them, you know do not particularly please.

If you could see your Ancestors all standing in a row, These might be some of them perhaps, You wouldn't care to know.

But here's another question which requires a different view, If you could meet your Ancestors, Would they be proud of you?
