I am shortly going to unsub myself, but needed to tell you that my husband
and I were in an auto accident on Aug 2. He did not survive. My injuries are
minor but sure are painful and restricting my activities. I will recover,
and I am so thankful that God spared my life. My husband was ill, though we
did not know it, and probably would not have lived past the end of the year
even without the accident. His passing was as we all would like ours to be,
swift and relatively painless (maybe only a moment or so of pain). My adult
children have been so wonderful in helping me, caring for me while I cannot
do so for myself. I must have done something right in raising them!

I will get back to genealogy in a month or so, or whenever I am able.
