"Few people leave as families.
The men and women (and boys and girls) seem to be with each other on the way out."

Young marrieds walked together, side by side.
Youngsters stuck together, boys & girls in their own groups, as did many adult gentlemen & ladies.
Some couples groups walked with two women in front, two men right behind them.
Only a few walked alone.
All appeared healthy, I.e., none in wheelchairs.

Most do notice the camera and make a nod toward it, some clearly camera shy, others eager to be photographed.

Interesting to think how many of the boys died in WWI, and how many girls made widows by it.

Yep, another reminder of much the culture has collapsed over the past 100 years. The two World Wars, cultural Marxism and the sexual revolution were all contributors.

Obesity wasn’t a problem.

And....Each is so beautiful dressed and handsomely attired.

Those people all walked above the earth and now people are walking over them. Did they make the right choice concerning Jesus Christ when they were alive? Did they all go to church to meet with the risen Saviour as Blood-washed, Blood-bought Bible-believing Christians—or did they merely go to church week after week because they saw it as their familial duties.

How many of these people are today rejoicing and living life to its fullest in the presence of their Saviour in heaven, and how many of them simply neglected to do anything about the offer to come to Christ and be saved.

Sad, really, to spend a lifetime in church and then spend an eternity in hell.

I boticed the lack of fat people, too. A few fat men, a few chunky gals, and thin kids.

"Obesity wasn’t a problem."

It depended on who you were and where you came from. For the well off this was the era of twelve(!) course dinners. Most middle class settled for five or six courses which tended to be a bit less than what we would expect in a dinner course. The less fortunate were lucky to eat... period. Sedentary lifestyles were rare back then unless you were very well off. And then there was the new (in 1902) King Edward VII, affectionately referred to by his friends as "tum tum."

Not everything is warm and cuddly. I bet every one of those that are still lost would gladly come and tell you it is true-if they could.

Incredible!!

Funny to see some of them look into the camera lens....one boy even trying to ‘stall’ to get more face time :-)

Also....I noticed that even the elderly were in terrific shape....not overweight and able to easily take the steps down, to the walkway.

Nothing like what you see in America (and England), today. Older folks mostly (NOT all!!) seem to be hunched over, limping and slow stepping. Not able to take a simple step down, with the ease that these fine folks were able to.
