Oh my gosh!! I can't believe it's you!! I saw your brother at Gran's funeral last year (she died Jan 25, '99), and I asked about you. How are you? Are you still in CA? I'd love to hear from you, ... send me an email (
JustUs@2k-Now.com)! We've got years to catch up on.
I made a few phone calls for our "newly found" cousin (actually she is your and mom's cousin, my second cousin *S*), Bonita. Mom suggested I call your mom, and when I spoke with her, she suggested that I call Fran (she was married to Bert - Burt?), and she was a wealth of info. I asked her if she would mind if I gave her number to Bonita (mainly because I couldn't keep up with all the details)! *S* She said sure, so I sent Bonita an email with the info asked her to keep me posted on what she finds out. I'll galdly share any info I get from her with you!
And, about the info Grandpa may have gathered, Gran never mentioned it that I know of, and I'm sure if mom knew about it she would have mentioned it to me when I called her for Bonita, ... so I don't know if it still exists, and if so, where it might be. *sigh* If I ever come across it though, I'll let you know.
Again, I am sooooo excited to hear from you! I really hope you email me we can catch up on the years!
Love you!
