[Request] My grandfather recently passed and I'm looking to surprise my family with getting these two photos fixed up.

I'd like to have the square look removed from this first one if at all possible: http://imgur.com/RvseUIN

And my family would like to have the "hoochy mama" shopped out of this photo, without disturbing the flag: http://imgur.com/PklQwUd

It would be an amazing blessing to have these photo's looking nice and available for our family; I thank you so much for any attempt.

Edit: Holy crap thank you for the submissions, I can't tell you how much this will mean to my family. I re-uploaded the second link if it's not working: http://imgur.com/DG1ScWQ

If the request is unattainable just let me know, and again, thanks guys.

I'm sorry for the difficulty, I've never attempted any sort of restoration, but just from the looks of the picture, I thought it would be tedious work. Your submissions are absolutely amazing though, thank you!

Hey! Here is my attempt at the first one. Sorry if it looks a little blurry and painted, because I had to paint over it all with the smudge tool. Also, the second link seems to be broken. I'm sorry for your loss.

The submission looks so great, thank you for your work and condolences.

Y'all should try "surface blur" if you haven't already. It's really good for fixing this type of texture.

Here is the second one. I hope it's what you were looking for
