Attempt #2! Yes, it is true. I received a VERY GENEROUS donation today and it put us over the top. We have enough to pay off the marker, to pay what I expect the DAR emblem to cost us if we get it approved and maybe enough to pay to have the holes drilled in the marker if we have to have that done after the marker is placed in the cemetery. We have received donations from 23 family groups. Every donation helped. THANKS to everyone of you for your support.

Jim, I still have a couple of donations coming my way .I will send as soon as I get them. Why they won't mail them to you I don't know but I am not going to question some one who has been around eighty years.
