Debbie: Thank you very much for all the time and effort you put into posting Artie's Diary. I have passed them around to my family, and we have enjoyed them tremendously. Lot's of special memories were brought back up for us and it was both interesting and special to share in a part of your family history.

Thanks for sharing the diaries with us, Deb. Know it was hard work, but it was so much fun to read and it got things stirred up on this list again. Jackie
