Then and Now

So I have been meaning to post this but never got around to putting it together until today.
When we took our trip out to British Columbia earlier this month it was an opportunity for Melody's Dad to spend time with his brother and sister.
The picture on the left was taken about 1938. Melody's Dad is the oldest of the three.
The picture on the right Melody's Dad is in the middle.
The last time they saw each other was in 2012. However, then Melody's aunt was very sick in the hospital with cancer.
Thankfully the cancer is in remission.
This time they were able to enjoy each others company and spend time reflecting back when they were just children growing up in Amsterdam
