Would anyone be kind enough to colour this photograph?  Many thanks to anyone who may try.  Mary's eyes are blue and Frank's are green.

Hi Charles,
here is a quick fixup from me. Hope it is ok.
Has someone already attempted to fix it, some areas give that impression.

here is a colour, not too good I am afraid.
Also I got rid of the busy background, hope you don't mind.

Thanks Meg.

Its not easy redoing a restore that someone else has started, at least for me its not. I prefer to do the whole thing from scratch. As for the color....I am just learning that part and have a long way to go.
