Hi Bob,
I ended up sending a Descendant Book Report, which
included all the information she needed. All my
documents are saved in JPG. files and I am sending
them separately. It really was a very simple
procedure, but I always hesitate at doing new things.
*Giggle* That doesn't prevent me from doing things; I
just said I hesitate, but I always do the things that
scare me. My husband and son, back on Christmas 1998,
got me started on this Internet, computer thing. I
have loved it ever since! :-D Thank you so much
for all the information! Like my brother always says,
"it was as easy as snot slidding off a shed!" Just a
little levity to lighten up the Legacy list. LOL Have
a great rest of your day, Bob and listers!
Regards,
Darlene
