Sheree – I am so sorry for your loss. My sympathy to you and to all of Birdie’s family. It was through working on the genealogy of the Rekoske Family that Birdie and I learned to know one another and what a good time we had putting together what we could of the family history. She was always willing to share her info and I appreciated that so much. I will miss her a good deal. I plan to send a memorial to the U.W. Carbone Cancer Center in Birdie’s memory and they will no doubt inform you of that.
