In
the course of corresponding with newfound relatives,
I have collected some great photos to share, so whenever
I get new ones, I will try to post them here as time
allows. If you would like to download a copy of any
of the pictures here, go to the larger photo and just
right-click (Windows) or click-and-hold (Mac), click
"Save Image As..." or "Save Picture
As...", choose a folder to save it in from the
popup window that appears and click "save".
Email
me if you have problems.
If
you would like to contribute photos to this page or
for the reunion, please contact me, or just go ahead
and send them. No originals please. Copies or scans
only.
