E-Mail Address File

A couple of years ago we started a project to collect E-Mail addresses with the intention of using them as an alternative to mailing newsletters and to send out information on projects, illnesses or member deaths.

Rod Kent and I would like to resurrect this project. If you would like to participate and receive information via E-Mail please send your E-Mail Address to Rod Kent at rkvvkent@aol.com and copy me (Roger Lively) at pattyral@msn.com. (Rods address has two V’s not a W.) When you send your address please state whether or not you have Microsoft word 2000 or higher. This is critical if you are to receive newsletters.
