Forlorn Friday

I am sitting in a hotel room tonight with only my emotions to keep me company.  Tomorrow I will go to the funeral of my wonderful double cousin who I mentioned before - here, and here, and who wrote a guest blog post for me here.  She had the same passion as I did for the family history, and since we were double cousins, we had twice as many ancestors in common to keep us searching.

While I know that her struggle with ALS is over, I am selfishly sad that I won't have her friendship any more.  I am too sad to write anything now, but needed to say this. Her obituary is in the Rockford Register.

  7. Thank you for all your kind thoughts. I want to wait and write a blog post about her when my emotions have calmed down a bit. I have to do it right.
