    1. [OHJEFFER] A Thank You
    2. There were so many people who took the time to give me information about Sweeney Funeral Home, I thanked them each and at this time I want to say a special thanks to JIM. He found my Grandmothers (Anna May Bibey) obit and sent it to me. I have written to the funeral home hoping to get more information, I know its a long shot, but in research you have to check every possibility. Thank you all. One thing I found out from the obit is that my grandmother (a Methodist) went to the Presbyterian Church in Germano, and now I am going to find that address and write to them. Who knows, someone might still be around that will remember my grandparents. It was and is such a small town, probably everyone knew everyone. My friend John (Jack) Stringer still lives there but he does not do the internet or e-mail. I have written to him and talked to him about any information he could find but he hasn't been able to as yet. The one thing that is pressing on me is when my Grandmother died, my Grandfather went to live with his son and his wife in McKeesport, Pa. So, my aunt sold and gave away everything of my Grandmothers. One thing I have found out is she sold a lot to a used furniture store. I am certain there must be lots around, but there again, you never know. Anyway, one of the things that has disappeared is the Family Bible!!! That I really want to find somehow. The names inside might be mostly Bibeys or even Phillips. I was just a child when I looked at it and really didn't understand the importance of it. Now, it might answer a lot of questions. If anyone comes across an Bible in any of the used furniture stores or garage sales with these names in it, please let me know. Alice California
