[or-roots] Believe it or not!! Linda's Obits Pay off!!

[jasmels at juno.com]

Cecil just put his 2 cents worth in about Linda's obits.  Now, it's my
turn.
He is absolutely right-on!!  I have been one of Linda's biggest fans...er
pests, and my finds through her obits in the last several years count
beyond the fingers on both hands.  Just tonight.. I see this one.  I have
been searching for a certain "living" McCoy family associated with
another surname in Lincoln, Nebraska.  If I should ever find them, I feel
that family may have just the answers, and photos, I so desire to color
up my family history.  Well.... little did I expect to find this in
Linda's Register-Guard report.  But, here it is.  Possibly one of the
best things that's happened in my 30 years of research, and even better
than the invention of sliced bread!!   As this example illustrates, these
reports are not limited to home-grown Oregon/Washington westerners. 
Thanks Linda....you did it AGAIN. (Jackie from state of Washington)
