A photo of a member here with his sister (via. Email). I could have kept going but I spent way too much time on it already.

^^^ Nice job.

I would be careful what tools you use, make sure that when you are restoring old photos that you do not add any degradation to an already degraded image.

I don't think the blur works here at all, you are loosing more detail. The highlights are also more blown than they were causing a further loss.
Try and focus more on ways of strengthening what detail there is to work with.

Keep practicing though, it takes a long time to work out which tools work best for different situations.

Perhaps people not understanding what I like to do. I like to do more of deleting things or restoring photo to improve the photo greatly. These last few pictures, I am not sure what I delete to improve it greatly. The Giraffe photo is a good example.

Try the squirrel photo and take the limb out that is in front of its face...I do know what you mean though with what you are trying to do and that is the only one of the three I guess that would be up your alley. BTW: There is NOTHING you can do to make MY photos improve greatly. That would be like taking dog crap and turning it into a five-star meal served at a posh Beverly Hills bistro....
