Hi everyone. Tomorrow I am leaving Guinea for a three week vacation and I plan to be traveling a lot and won’t have my computer with me, so this issue will be the last one until I get back to site. Fran is planning on taking up all my time while I am home and she appears very serious about it. Hopefully all of you will be involved in holiday planning as well and won’t miss the issues.
Unfortunately we also have some very sad news to share with you this week. Deltra Wickware Johnson passed away on the 17th of November. Here is the notice that cousin Linda Tannis sent to us:
