[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Never throw away old photos. Just because you may not find any value in them that doesn’t mean that someone else may not. I can’t tell you the number of important items that previous generations threw out because they thought that nobody would care. Well I wasn’t even alive yet when some of these decisions were made and it has cut me off from my own relatives and history because of their thoughtless actions. [/quote]

That’s part of why I do it. I use the assumption that there may be someone down the line for whom these things are very meaningful as many of them have been to me. I love seeing my great grandfathers face in that of my son. I feel like I’m just one of many stewards in the history of our family. It’s truly only recent in human history where we can have pictures of places and people and things that are meaningful to us. What a shame that so many take it for granted. [/quote]

The descendants can - and will prefer to - see the face digitally as opposed to on an old, crinkled, faded, yellowing piece of paper.  Don’t wait a moment longer to scan the pix you want people after you to see.  They are deteriorating fast.[/quote]
