- A few resourceful Keppy family members dug up some old 8mm film reels with footage of Keppy Christmases past. (Yes…it’s spelled Christmases)
- Shortened versions of those videos are in this article. Hopefully, they help remind us of family members that are not with us anymore. I really enjoyed watching these. I hope you enjoy them as well.

- There was a lot of blank space and bad lighting in the original videos. I went through and cut out a lot of the less-than-exciting shots to help make them a little easier to watch. I did my best to filter out the crazy bright scenes & lighten the dark ones. It was really tough to see many of the scenes in the original videos. Hopefully, these edited versions are a little easier to watch.
- The person running the camera in the original shots tended to take a lot of very short clips of events. This makes the videos seem a bit choppy. However, it doesn’t take long to adjust to this.
- The videos are roughly in chronological order (oldest at the top…newer at the bottom). I believe they span from 1969 -> 1976 and another from 1989 -> 1991, but don’t quote me on the older dates.
