To Raffaella and Fabio, Back in 2002 I began my search for my Guidi/Marelli families in the communes of Busto Arsizio and Cairate respectively. Both of you were of much help in giving me direction as to what I should do and who I should communicate with. As a result of your help, I found many living descendants of the Guidi family residing in Busto Arsizio/Borsano and was able to obtain some information on my Marelli family from the church in Bolladello. I visited Italy and my family in Borsano in June and had a wonderful time. I also visited the village of Bolladello in the commune of Cairate but made no family connections and regrettably the church was closed on the day of my visit. Nevertheless, I would like to again thank both of you for all of your past help. My only regret I was unable to either meet Fabio or Raffaella, my artist friend, who resides on the Adriatic Coast. Perhaps next time. Mike Saunders
