Linda and Randy at Church in 1982 -- Post 616 of (Not So) Wordless Wednesday

I can't help it, I can't do a wordless post! I found some more family photos hiding in Linda's family photo boxes. This is one of my favorite photographs:

This photograph is from 1982 - probably Easter since we are all dressed up - on the sidewalk in front of Chula Vista Presbyterian Church.  I am wearing my Elder badge and Linda is wearing her Deacon badge, and carrying her Bible.  We joined CVPC when we married in 1970, and still attend church there (and will when the COVID-19 panic is over).   I was elected an Elder in 1981 after the pastor left, and served through 1985, and served on two pastor nominating committees.  Linda was elected a Deacon several times between 1981 and 2010.  

These photos were scanned from photographs created from developed film prints and are not particularly sharp, but they are what we have!

Several times a year when our children were growing up, Linda sent photographs to her parents and brother in San Francisco. When her father died in 2002, her brother sorted out the photos and gave Linda the ones that were of our family and the ones interacting with them. They were given to us in a big box of stuff back in 2006, and we finally looked at them last year! I've started digitizing them for use in these Wordless Wednesday posts.

Isn’t it wonderful that they saved those photos?

Love the photo! When my parents passed my sister sorted out their photos and we received photos we gave them over the years. 1982.
