This is a picture my aunt took WAYYYY back. This is the 4-generation picture of my dad, my brother, my Oma, and my grandpa. We lost Oma when I was 16 so seeing this picture brought back a flood of my memories of her. My Oma was an absolutely amazing woman. She and her entire family lived through WWII in a Japanese concentration camp in Indonesia. They moved to the US after the war was over when my grandpa was about 16 years old. My Oma is the strongest woman I have ever known. To have lived through that, surviving with her kids in this work camp all alone (my Opa was in a work camp for men and we think the ONLY reason Oma wasn't with him is because of her ability to paint portraits). Anyway, bit of history of my family =)
On top of that, the total 80s style of everything makes me smile! lol
what a neat picture to have, and what a story!!
