So sorry for your loss Bruce. Please accept our deepest prayers and Sympathies
I not a pro photographer but I love taking photos. Over the years I used to print 4x6 images of my favorites and of family events, children etc and put them in photo albums. I used to print a lot, really alot Now I have all these albums with those prints that no one is really interested in except me on occasions and are sitting boxes in the attic. Every photo from a negative has been digitized over the years so are preserved and can be shared. Of course any digital camera images are saved.
Nowadays, I'll print photos of our grandchildren, 5x7s and have them in frames on a table or mantle, changing them as the kids grow up.
I also send photos to my moms digital frame and she loves watching photos of all the family past and present.
My children never print. Their lives in photos are on their phones. Different generation.
I've also used blurb to make photo books of our favorite trips. I aways kept a diary of each day and I'd always have a narrative to go along with each photo when making the book. Ìt preserves the memory of what each photo was, what we were thinking and feeling and seeing at the time the images were taken. I'd use the best paper offered and the largest sizE book. Time consuming to do but whenever I look at the books the memories are like it was yesterday for me and my wife.
Why not use google photos? . Create an album and then just send the link. They then can download the photos.
[I find that a telephoto lens goes a long way in getting shots without anyone noticing you pointing a camera at them. I also like to let my camera hang from my neck set a wide depth of field and snap as I walk the street. Sometimes you get bad results but very often capture some good material.
I've been yellled at for snapping candids by unwilling subjects so I am a bit shy about it myself. You can never tell, but a subject may be undocumented, or may have police record, or even better maybe wanted by the police, so understandable someone like that would be angry. Yea for the telephoto lens.
I guess i am fortunate. My two kids, now grown up with families of their own, are very interested in our family history and all the family images my brothers and I have digitized. 3 - 4 generations worth. Although my very young grandchildren arent interested yet, hopefully they will be when they are our age. We werent really thinking aut these things until we were in our late 40's early 50's. About this time the family elders were starting to die off and the younger generation started to feel their mortality.
Love it! ThaNks for sharing.
Ive been extremely satisfied with the image quality. No complaints and haven't picked up my 7D once
Wow! Looks exactly like it was when i was a soldier in 1967 Stationed in Germany. Loved that town. I still have slides i took there, albeit a bit faded. Thanks for sharing those.
Depending upon how much memory your pad has, why not upload to the pad then to google photos or the apple version of that and once in the cloud remove those images from your device and upload another group.
Ive used Blurb many times and have alway been highly satisfied. I spend a little extra for paper upgrade.

No photo is worth a punch in the face or a smashed camera. An apology goes a long way, especially if you've already taken the shot. If not just walk on.
I also purchased the M50 and have been very happy with it, going from the Canon 7D. I purchased the kid lenses and an adapter so I can use my L series 70-105 when I wish. I sold my 70-300 L series because of the weight and I found I wasn't using it as often as I thought I would. I am still getting used to the smaller size and where the controls are, but the I love the very familiar menu system. That was one of the reasons I chose that camera as my mirrorless choice.
For the reason you site, I periodically resort my photos just to have an excuse to look at them, and relive some of the experiences I had when they were taken.
