    Those are such marvelous photos, and I'm glad you still have them. Yes, she would be 105 today, if she were still with us. Well, she is ALWAYS with us, even if we can't see her! Have a great day, Sister. xxoo

    Wonderful pictures and sweet memories. My mother was born in 1914 and her early pictures look very much like these. Happy and blessed autumn day!

    What treasures those photos of your mother are!

    Sadly, both my grandmothers were young widows and the only professional photos they had made me done shortly after they lost their husbands. My dad was three in the photo with his Mother and baby sister and my Mom was the youngest of six children. They are the only photos I have of them as children.
