Family Photo Album : III

I always thought this quite beautiful photography, there's so much life in this little picture you could easily imagine being there. My grandmother is the lady wearing the dark coat standing next to the bride and one of the little flower girls is my mother's older sister, Francis and the other her cousin. But such a joyous image can resonate a lot of other emotions; it really strikes me to see family assembled like this long ago when I think of what's become of all those people. The blushing bride is my great aunt, who I know was called Lucy, but died before I was born, another great aunt, Irene, can be seen behind my grandmother showering the bride in confetti, she now suffers from dementia and of course my much loved grandmother who passed away when I was in grade four.
