What a wonderful journey into all those mysterious places tucked away in the back of your head! So recognizable! So familiar!
I loved reading this.

So lucky to have film footage of your parents. I had an audio tape of my Dad’s voice for a while but have no idea where it is now.
I remember their voices very well, very well indeed.
Ah sweet memories are such treasures. Thanks for reminding me. xo

Speranza I had a reel, long lost and then found, magically transfered to CD. It is a thrill to see my mom and dad. I wish there was sound. My dad died when he was 46 and I don’t remember his voice. I hope your family will go ahead with this project.

How evocative you write about this event. I can feel your dilemma of whether to watch the reels or save yourself the pain. I’m not surprised you feel you must yield to temptation & relive the love shared in these moment. Thank you for sharing.

This post takes me back to the SOUND of those movie reels, as the film at the end of the spool slapped repeatedly against the spool, until someone pressed STOP. I hope you enjoy reliving those “reel” memories.
