GENEALOGISTS ARE THE BEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD!

Hey Everyone,

I’m dealing with deadlines, so this will have to be shorter than I’d like, but I just had to say that GENEALOGISTS ARE THE BEST PEOPLE IN THE WORLD!  I’m overwhelmed by your collective kindness and support, and your thoughtful words and good wishes have brought me far closer to tears than the pair of dramas I’ve been dealing with of late.  Thank each and every one of you for buoying my spirits and getting my back!

With gratitude,

Megan
