I scanned and edited fifty years of my photos, placed them in folders by year, and made CDs which I gave to each of my sons. They can do with them as they see fit. My youngest, who lost his wife, and has since remarried, used the images to show his new spouse the experiences of his youth. The old images do sometimes serve a purpose.
