I'm always amazed at how excited I get when I get mail from "family". I think we should try to have a "city" gathering (lunch). Surely, across the country there are those who live close enough to have two or three to get together. I live in Atlanta. So, I think that some of these long lost cousins should at least try it.

For those of you who have never had that pleasure, let me tell you, it was a great thrill to be able to hug and talk with a cousin that I didn't know about until a few years ago! Iris is an absolute wonder! We were really shocked to discover that we share many of the same traits, both physical and mental <g> and we both have the same color of eyes! Genetics seem to be very strong in this Yelton clan! Over the past few years, many of us have discovered family we didn't know about... so if you ever have the chance to meet these blood kin, do it! Believe me, it's a sensation you won't forget!! And if any of you is ever in the Atlanta, GA area... give me a call! > > Cousin Suzanne > > > ==== YELTON Mailing List ==== > YELTON FAMILY: http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~yelton/ > Webmaster: Cheryl G.
