Secrets in Silhouettes

From 1972.  My dad's parents and siblings in Michigan sent us a cassette tape full of Christmas greetings.  My sister Hope was just born the previous October and we were barely moved into our new home in Bradenton, Florida.  My mother gave this tape to me years later before she died because it had broken. She admitted she had only played it possibly once more after we initially listened to it those many years ago because it featured my grandmother Angie Sebring who died the following May.  It's wonderful and sad to hear some of these voices of those no longer with us.  So forty years later, I'd like to share this little time capsule with my family across the country via Facebook.  Merry Christmas to all of you!  (go grab a tissue now)

Tech notes: The audio cuts in and out with clicks throughout the recording.  This is caused by people turn on and off the microphone/remote in between sentences and thoughts.  Remember, this was cutting edge technology back then and it seemed like people treated the microphone like the would a CB radio. Click it on when you wish to speak and turn it off when you're silent.  I did manage to reduce much of the hiss and other cassette noise as well as try to restore as much fidelity as possible.
