My Beautiful Grandma

My Beautiful Grandma
I didn't know her as I was born many years after she'd died (on August 31, 1944 - during the Warsaw Uprising).
But her sister-in-law / my great-aunt used to tell me that I had inherited her chin and her stubbornness.

Always good to bring back to life these precious memories and people. At least you still have photographs. I wonder what the future generations of our young people will have when every one of their photo snaps is only posted to such places as Ipernity and Facebook. I still have the old photo albums of our childhood 60+ years ago and my mothers album too from her early life in Germany. ~ Having visiting Kraków in Poland, and having had an English X-soldier as a father and a German mother, I feel that I have a little understanding of how life must have been over there in the war days.

Thanks for sharing. Keep safe. Herbert

There is a shelf in my studio where I keep several binders and folders filled with most important photos and documents telling my family history.
I already told my daughter: "It's something to be kept after I am gone and if you ever even think of throwing it away I'll haunt you till the end of your days, I promise!"
Thanks for understanding, Herb!

Good that you told her that. I will always regret, helping to clear the house of my wife's uncle, then throwing away hundreds of his slides and even rolls of movie film, as there was nobody left to remember anybody shown on there. One thing for people to have such memorabilia another thing for people to actually care though. Such is life -we really do live for the moment!
Regards, Herbert
