Welcome

Greetings. Welcome to the family's new online gathering site.

For those of you who don't know, I am Edith's grandson, Chad (Janice's son).

I'm not precisely sure how it happened, but I have been "volunteered" to create and coordinate a family blog to help us all keep in touch with one another. It is a job that I am more than happy to take on and when I think about it, I am probably the most technically qualified to do so.

Again, the purpose of this site is to help the family keep in touch and to help fulfill the role that Grandma played as the central hub for family information and updates. Another key advantage to the site will be that people can scan and post family pictures so that everyone has copies. In addition, some of Grandma's family photos do not have all of the people's names on them. With input from the rest of the family, we may be able to fill in the gaps and put names to faces.

I will be posting instructions on how to set up an account so that you may start posting on your own.

Finally, if you know the email addresses of other people in the family who would be interested in joining, please either tell them about the blog or send me their address.

Cheers,
Chad
