The colors have been slightly enhanced in this color picture from the late 1960s. Don’t let your memories fade like these colors often do.

Do not let your efforts to analyze, understand, and preserve the distant past prevent you from recording and sharing current events and traditions in your own family as well. Preservation is more than taking pictures. Record traditions, family recipes, favorite activities, memories of recent events, etc. before memories fade.

Because, like color photograph from the 1960s, memories will fade.

  1. I sprinkle old photos among my genealogy books so I can put faces and facts together. Also put pictures of period clothing which helps to give an illusion of what their life may have been.
