Many of us have hundreds if not thousands of photos, and most are decades old. So where do we start? Join Kathy Nielsen as she shares tips on identifying, organizing and restoring old photos. She will introduce you to Restore, a new and easy photo editing application. Don’t give up on your precious memories. There is hope!
