Felecia,
All I can say is WOW!!! Let me say it again....WOW!! What a reunion!

Your post is a testament that MANY of our people are truly "thirsty" for knowledge about their own family history!! Believe me, not only did this reunion touch you in a great way, but you've made a SIGNIFICANT difference in several of your family members' lives!!! If they hadn't before, they now feel like they are truly SOMEBODY! Great-Grandma Sadie is dancing up and down, with tears streaming down her face. Oh, how proud of you she is! And as my African-American sista, I AM PROUD OF YOU 2!!!!

You were NOT bragging! You were just releasing all of that joy that you have! If this is called "bragging", then brag on my sista!

We GOTTA e-chat about your COLLIER lines. E-mail me.

Thanks for sharing!
Mel
