It is really appreciated! :) For those of you who sent obit lookups, what I sent to you today will probably be the last ones for two weeks. I'm out of town next weekend. Please be patient -- I have gotten requests for 127 obits in the past week alone -- and please don't resend your request thinking I didn't get the first one. Happy hunting! Tracee
