Thanks for getting back to me. No problem, I used your bio from the SCGJamorbee book and also went on the Internet and found a nice pic. of you in color and sent out anouncements to all our members and the press. Looks like it is going to be a dandy Seminar, got well over 100 registrations already and more coming in every day. Look forward to your presentation. Larry says you are amazing. D
Hi Lisa, Just talked to Larry Bowles of the Hemet-San Jacinto Genealogical Society concerning your gracious acceptance of his invitation to speak at our 24th of Oct Seminar. We are thrilled to have you. I do PR for the HSJGS and would appreciate an e-mailed Word Document of your Bio to send to the local Newspapers, I already saved your Photo to go with it. My e-addy is: donna.mata1@verizon.net I have the copy of your bio from the Jamobree book but the newspapers need one they can edit & copy from. Thanks a bunch.
