Great Grandma
« on: Tuesday 11 May 10 03:25 BST (UK) »
If anyone is interested, great grandma could use an update - maybe a little color in her cheeks?  I know she'd really appreciate a little freshening up as I certainly would.

Thank you

I am totally astonished at how good she looks - you all are phenomenal and I thank  you as I know that Grandma Wells does.  Really brings her to life.  Thank you a thousand times over.

Just amazing - I've been doing research on her and her life and all we had of her was the black and white on a piece of paper that I scanned in - you have truly given me a better sense of what she looked like.  She has one surviving grandchild and I am sending this off to her - my aunt will be thrilled.  Thank you again.

It's amazing what you all are doing for me.  She's really looking like a person, rather than just a flat black and white image on a piece of paper.  She looks great for 161 years!

Thanks
