Hi Elizabeth and welcome to the list! I think you posted once before and I
wondered then if you were related to Catherine!

I always love hearing Catherine's account of this and am happy to hear you
were there, too!
It's great to see more family members joining in here - there's Brian's
sister Ellen Gross and I think a few others, too. I don't have any brothers
or sisters but have had a few friends join up for a bit here and there to
check out Joni (or maybe just to *find* me when they can't reach me on the
phone for awhile ;-)
Hope to meet you someday at one of our SoCal get-togethers!
