Dee, Could you send me Bob's obit?? I read it at the time but did not copy. Now, Linda Reno of St Marys, MD list is wanting his obit. She had planned on meeting Bob this summer. Like so many of us, she was in contact with Bob, too-- only learned recently of Bob's passing. Takes a while for bad news to spread, I guess. I should have known that Bob was also in contact with the Marylanders!!!! Or you could send to [email protected] . Correspond with Linda all the time & she is as great of help as Bob was. She is a GREAT genealogist & "the head hancho" on the SMC list. Greatly respected & everyone defers to Linda's knowledge of the early people of SMC.
