It is difficult for us to express our sincerest thanks to you for your great efforts in producing the images of our ancestors and elders who have departed from this world. Some of us saw these people when they were alive, others were not so fortunate. You have portrayed their images and they are so lifelike, and we lament them. Oh my elders, greetings and salutations to you all.
