Hi Frances, No worries about the "public response"....doesn't bother me, so don't let it bother you! (Apologies for this tardy response. Sometimes e-mail has to be put on the back-burner, when life gets too busy - as it has been for me, lately!) Anyway, looking forward to staying in touch.
Take care, Patsy ________________________________ From: cyfswong <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Cc: [email protected] Sent: Mon, January 25, 2010 9:21:49 PM Subject: Fw: [SALIGAONET] DEATH: Anselmo Cordeiro, 1929-29.12.2009 OOPS!!!

Your comforting message is helping us through this difficult time. Yes, our families have many happy memories of shared good times in Saligao and we remember your Mum and Dad, Aunty Phyllis and Uncle Eddie with great affection. Patsy, our congratulations to Kathy - I understand she graduated from high school last summer. She is such a lovely and poised young lady. What is she studying now? Our very best wishes to you, Kathy and Fred.
