Cousin Ivan: You have answered a question I have longed to know the answer
of: Is J. P. Morgan a relative? Thanks for knowing the answer. Now, how
about the Eisenhowers? Isn't Ike one of our kin?
Love ya,
Sincerely,
Darris Gayle Cottrell Raizor
Louisville, KY 40217

Life is not measured by the breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath.
