Santa came to my house, after all! Now comes the fun part. Indentification! There are aout 10 that I am pretty sure of. I have only 6 Bio's, and have 23 squares, so need 17 more! EKKKK! I have 26 names of caregivers (but I don't know them, except by their usernames, so kind of hard!) And I did get three unused packets, so there are three that were never made, but still! Look at how lovely it will be!

Please, if you recognize your Loved One, please tell me their full name, Birth-Death, where they are from, and a little bit about them. Some folks have been sending entire Obit's, and that is fine.

A couple of you are getting a very old checks back, and a little bag of 'forget-me-not-seeds' Sandie didn't want to keep your money, and didn't want to mess up your checking account. Such a thoughtful, and giving woman she is.

If I guessed wrong, please let me know, too! I only have about 7-10 days to get these off to New York, so *Crunch* time!

One more thing. Please write me, about your square @ bigskygirl_2001@bresnan.net and be sure to put "Quilt Square" in the subject line. I have a parent, or a couple of "Bee"s, and I can't remember her? Vicky is the couple *Kissing* QM & FT?

Thanks! :wink:

Oh Goody! It is working! I was pretty sure that was your Dad. I printed out his Bio, with a pic of his quilt square, inserted to the top. :D

Sky, I managed to get into the Kodak Album that Mickie on the old board created. I'm going to post the link and cross my fingers that it works. I can tell you that I recognize some of the photos, but when you look at the album you will also see some of the same with ID's attached. Clara Nutter is Nutty Chris's MIL and I believe that the picture with more than one photo is Eileen V's father.

Anyway here's the link

http://www.kodakgallery.com

E-mail address to enter is alz_hmr@yahoo.com

Password: Loved Ones

It will tell you that it can not find the album, but go to the Search button and enter ALZ LO PICTURES. If by chance that doesnt work change the date of the album to Jan 2007 and the entire album should pop up. I tried to put in the whole web address in this message but the link didn't work so I've got my fingers crossed that this succeeds. Let me know how this turns out.

Yes, you are right, I talked to Eileen today, and got her Dad's bio. I called Nutty Chris last night, but at her work #. Does anyone have her E-Mail Addy? Also, were one of these yours? If so, can you write me a small bio obout it?

Thanks for the help. I am still looking for someone named "Bee" from the old board.

Sky, sent you a PM with Chris's e-mail address. Double check that photo with the ones in Mickie's album. I don't think that's Clara. I think the one on the bottom of the same page in your post is. Thanks for doing all this.

you're right. I got Nutty Chris' square straightened out, but that other one does look soooo familiar? I got into the kodak photo center, but only saw the one album of the caregivers? Wasn't their two? Anyway, I'll get there by gum! :wink:
