About Us & What We Do -- Edisons' Photo Fix & Sho

To begin with there's myself and my wife Barb. Better known as Grandma and Geeze. We have been married for about 40 years and have been living on a small farm in Northern Lower Michigan since 1979. We have two kids, Matt and Sarah, 3 grandchildren, several cattle and two dogs.

Through the years, I have occupied myself in many ways, as a student, college instructor, farmer, conservationist, extension educator and community organizer to name some. I am currently retired and now able to pursue more personal interests, including photography and computing.

Barb is a registered nurse working as a Health Educator with a local Community Health Center. She maintains our family accounts and has picked up the same role with "Fix & Sho.

Edisons' Photo Fix and Sho is a small family operated business. We live in communities scattered across upper Midwestern U.S. and operate this business from our homes. We are not professional graphic artists or computer engineers, but we are all professionals, and sincerely committed to providing the highest quality service for our customers. We hope we can help you with your photo restoration and slide show presentations.

This is who we are.

Our son Matt and his lovely wife Cathy have been married for 10 years and live in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Matt is a forester and Cathy an educator. They have two great kids Mitchell 11, who is an star hockey goalie and an excellent student, and Hannah 6, who is just wonderful and interested in everything.

Matt has considerable experience editing VHS tape presentations and converting them to DVD format. Cathy is naturally creative and artistic and can do almost anything.

Brief Introductions:

Welcome! to Edisons' Family Photo Rehab & Production Center. My name is Tom Edison, believe it or not, and that probably has something to do with the name of our little family business. Anyway, since I am the family elder, and also the only one retired, I have been chosen to guide you through this site. You may start anywhere you like, but I would recommend finding out about us as a good way to begin.
