Jeff worked for them almost 30 yrs in business imaging systems.
Our good friends, who are college buds, fraternity buds and later my buds, too, are celebrating 50th wedding anniversary. So Jeff is pulling out our treasure trove. Anyone remember taking photos?

When Mrs. SSS died last year, the funeral home asked for pictures they could use as part of the service. I went through years of family and vacation photos to assemble a bunch dating back to our wedding, and our daughter turned them into a 10-minute video montage. Since then, she downloaded the photos to her phone, which displays random pics whenever she turns it on. So, she gets to see pictures of Mrs. SSS (and sometimes me) a lot. It's a bittersweet experience for her.
I'm a bit nostalgic today. It would have been our 42nd wedding anniversary.

Nice try on the wording. Everyone knows that it should read "So, before my husband killed Kodak..."
Facts.

Um-I want to see the 1980 photo where you are wearing the circa 1980 shorty shorts that you can see in the background. Harrumph-too much beefcake shown for the ladies-My God woman-where were you-a men's locker room or something.
