Hi Gang,

Fantastic job, best list of information regarding deaths I have come across.

Only one "glitch" so far. When I selected the name "Noonan" I could not
print them out until I highlighted all the names on that list. I did not
have to do this with any other name.(so far).

Regards Lorraine
Mooroopna
