[or-roots] Killed in action

[ViolaRae Kassing]

 You poor woman.  You are working on genealogy?  Do you know the purpose of
genealogy?  To learn about one's ancestors and one's heritage!  I'm very
sorry to say I don't think your ancestors want to be found by such as you!  

Even those that have 'gone across', died or however you want to express it
aren't finding you a likable person!!!

Go right ahead and delete to your hearts content because you are probably
missing the names and/or referances to the information you desire.  Ugly
breeds ugly!!!

Much lip flapping is being made today about US service men and women being
killed in Iraq.
 
In Sweet Home, in the 40's there was a big billboard, on a mound, on the SW
corner of 12th & Main Streets that listed our war dead in WW II.  A Shell
gas station occupied that corner for a few years, but it too, is now gone.
 
I remember feeling a bit disapointed that I did not know any of the persons
named on that billboard.  Is there anyone here that may have seen that
billboard?  Do you have a photo of it?
I delete virtually everything that shows up on this list, which I have been
a member of for years because something in my area might show up some day. 
You are a bunch of clacking old hens, who should form a chat group, because
that is what you want to do.  YOU were SORRY you didn't see any names you
recongnized?  I totally support the war in Iraq but the boy who grew up 2
houses down from my house died in Iraq  and one of my grandsons is there now
  YOU should be GLAD you didn't recognize any of the names.  You totally
disgust me.  Will go back to ignoring all this crap unless it mentions one
of my surnames or Union County.
