I wish to apologize for taking so long to return a message to you. I left my home in Washington in March 2001 and had an extended stay in Wisconsin due to health/medical problems of my parents. My mother passed away in June and I was needed to assist with the estate and oversight of my father's medical conditions, including 3 surgeries between September and November. I am currently trying to catch up on 3900 e-mails which accumulated over my absence and cleaning and re-organizing my home. Please be assured that I am very interested in in sharing family history information with you and look forward to being in contact with you. Sincerely, Susan L. Nokes snokes@tscnet.com (Please use this address to contact me) (previous e-mail address 3/2001- 12/2001- while in Wisconsin was: apetta@netwurx.net)
