WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — A picture-perfect ending. The Christmas pictures taken with a 30-year-old camera are reunited with the family that took them. KSN’s Derek Lytle spoke to the family, which has a special tie to KSN, about what it means to see those memories for the very first time.
Several who work at KSN were shocked when Kevin Crockett, a former director and producer, reached out about an hour after last night’s 10 p.m. broadcast. He was astonished. The pictures developed were his family’s 2001 Christmas photos.
A Hallmark ending.
“I remember that day perfectly, so it was really cool to see those pictures again,” said Kevin Crockett.
He received a call that the pictures aired in a KSN story might belong to his family. Now, he is reunited with memories he did not know existed.
“What a great time for us to have that family memory back, at Christmas, and they were Christmas pictures. It was so nice that that guy took the moment to get them developed and see what would happen,” said Crockett.
