At this time of year I think a lot of us take a moment to stop and think about how important our family & friends are... the people on this list are both for me... this has been a difficult year for many of us, in many ways, but now at the end of the 2005 I wanted to take a moment to tell all of you how privileged I feel to be part of this list. Not only the genealogical assitance, but the warmth and support in other ways, are things I have to be very thankful for this year. I just want to wish all of you, and your families and friends, a Merry Christmas, a Happy Hanukkah, a Happy Holiday... whatever greeting you use, and whatever traditions you choose... I wish the very best for all of you, for the end of 2005 and in the new year to come. with love your cousin, Gordon Bonnet Trumansburg NY
