It would be my daddy because he never was able to see me grow up, if he were here I would have turned out way better than what I am now but I believe he bought my husband to me through his afterlife. He never was treated fairly by anybody in our family; he was surrounded by a majority of my mother's family and they never treated him right. My mother always accused him of cheating even though he wasn't because he was home faithfully every single night of the week.
My mother also only thought of him as a provider and nothing more - she was always trying to make us (his kids) think the same thing but I always knew there was something more to my father. My mother always tried to be the center of attention because she was always at home; none of the kids went to my dad with anything or didn't want to learn anything from him because they were all independent like my mama but even I suffered from that but I got out of it when I noticed that my daddy was a loner in his own household - I began seeking my father's consult, watching TV with him, and much more because I wanted him to feel needed as a father.
My father took care of seven of his own kids and three other kids that weren't his - ten in all. I think that if my dad was alive more of him would have come out. My father is like me and I am like him; sometimes I think the only seven of them who is just like him. He was a loving man who was the best father he could be and he knew he was which kept him getting up for work until the day he was diagnosed with lung cancer and died. On the day my daddy died, I cried for four hours straight until there were no tears in my eyes and after crying for so long, I went to sleep for another two hours and felt so drained & empty when I woke up. Even when I woke up, I still couldn't believe he was gone (my mother & the rest of my siblings had left the house; don't know why or where) except for four of my closer siblings. I sat them all down on the front porch and we started talking about our memories that we had with him and how we felt about him. After we talked for an hour, we visited the room he died in and went through his closet - smelling his suits and checking out his collections; he'd never allow us to do that when he was alive but just finding something that allowed us to remember him. After collecting some of his things for my keepsake and my other siblings did the same, I went to sleep again. I've had connections with his spirit, so I'm okay because he's still here all around me.

If I had the power to only bring back 1 member, I guess it would be my mother. She died 13 years ago when my boys were babies, and she has never met her granddaughter, who is now 8. There is so much I would have to tell her, and show her. Hopefully she would be proud of me. I wish I could bring my Dad back too, but since you said only 1, I would choose my mother.

Would it be right? They will not understand/know much of the current age because times change so much, especially technologywise etc.
Motre importantly, everyone they new or loved is likely to have died etc too.
Personally I can't think of anything worse that if I had died then "came back" years into the future because everything I grew up knowing would have changes, my friends gone, different culture etc so it would be pretty unpleasant.
Thats my twopence worth of oppinion anyhow!

My Great Aunt Hilda.
She was such an amazing character and I was too young to understand the complexities of her life before she died.
I could spend the next year just sitting listening to her past memories-always presuming that they came back with her.
Plus I would wait with baited breath for her approval of the me I have become.

My father's father. He was one of eleven children and severed all links with his family. Accordingly, there is a whole branch we know nothing about at all. Would really like to get him back to ask him for some information.
I'd only want him back for a couple of days, though ... he was a grumpy old so and so

Our son, who has battled drugs and alcohol for years. He stays clean for so long and then is off and running again. Has been through so many treatment centers, has been locked up, has went through the withdrawls so many times I have lost count. If I could bring him back for good, it would be the happiest day of my life.
