My heart goes out to all of you who have already express your horror and
sorrow, and I fully understand you because I share your feelings..

Like many on this list, I live alone in Florida, so in a loose fashion, the
list members become like friends or family through the family of
genealogyresearchers. While I don't agree with the negative comments, this
is
AMERICA, and I fully support their right to their opinion. In fact,
opinions are like Mothers . . . everyone has one, and reasonable people can
disagree.

If we can't be tolerant of each other on this list, how can we as a NATION
be tolerant of others.

I PRAY that we all ask GOD to BLESS an Sustain AMERICA.

Linda
