To Stacie: I for one have so enjoyed your wonderful web page. I am hoping that you will not let the few bad apples spoil all your hard work. I have been working on my family history for many years and it was much harder when you had to travel quite a distance to find the information we now can find on the web. You have been such an inspiration to me. You have not given me that magic link to my elusive Landess ancestors but I have enjoyed sharing the information I have found on other Landes, Landess, Landis. I am a sensitive person and sometime people say hurtful things. My friends keep telling me to just consider the source, let it roll off your back, etc. It works but sometimes it hits you on a bad day. >From reading your website you have a real connection with your faith. Let your faith help you through these hateful emails and just hit the delete key!!!! That's what it is there for. I have been picked up on some spam list and I get all kinds of garbage. I refuse to change my email address I just see the garbage and hit delete. Stacie, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New year along with everyone else on the list. Keep your chin up. Smile. God loves you. Have a happy new year. Sharon M. Bledsoe
