H. Mounts sent this today and I thought you would enjoy -- sounds like something I vaguely remember seeing from the Bible but sure it was not exact quote, but my memory is bad -- may have been his own prayer.

Just a reminder that Lori and I will be reviewing pages starting Tuesday evening. Please be sure if you have a mirrored site of InGenWeb linked to your page to remove it. Also be sure that your State Coordinator Information has been edited. I enjoy looking at all our pages and all the information. Sometimes I just stop and read for a long time and forget what I am doing. Your guys are the greatest! -- Betty a/k/a Kyseeker of Kentucky and Indiana kyseeker@dynasty.net =========================== Indiana State InGenWeb Coordinator - http://www.rootsweb.com/~ingenweb/ Vanderburgh Co., In - http://www.rootsweb.com/~invander/vand.htm Trigg Co., Ky - http://www.usroots.com/~kyseeker/trigg/trigg.html Christian Co., Ky - http://www.usroots.com/kyseeker/public_html/christian/christian4.htm
