“I just want to let you know how much we enjoyed your Spring Newsletter.
The article by Bill Thornton was one of the best, most succinct, informative and understandable articles on the subject I’ve read, and many thanks to him for producing it!
The additional highlight of the edition was “The Flood of Memories…”. It was wonderful to travel through time with such vivid descriptions of so many things also embedded in my memory.”
