Cousin Lisa passed away unexpectedly last month aged just 29. Funny how this hobby turns distant relatives into third cousins ,one time removed....then just cousins...then friends.No, we never met- I'm a hemisphere away.But Lisa was a bundle of enthusiasm. Her last colourful note was all about her latest adventure photographing records and gravestones in wet and windy Lincolnshire. She went looking for a piece of unconsecrated ground and blocked the entrance to the field...turns out the guy waiting patiently on his tractor to get in was yet another 'cousin'. I suppose she's now getting her information from source...come on Lisa, share!! And PS, I got the photos in time for Christmas, thanks. John

isnt it great that the internet can do so much in bringing people together, regardless of Age,Sex,Religion,Race, we can all share and enjoy the same stories. Families all over the world can keep in touch every day. This will only improve in time. Bill Downunder (philosopher).

Dear John, What lovely memories, the little poem that always seems to help me, A person lives as long as they are remembered, Only when they are forgotten do they die, Lisa will live forever. My thoughts are with you. Take great care.
