**It generally takes me some time to add things like obituaries etc. If there are edits you can make through the automated system, please use that.**

I had used findagrave for some time anonymously during my genealogy research and finally decided to make an account. I liked the idea of memorializing those family members and ancestors who have memorials already, as well as finding information on those who don't so I can add them. I think it's important that our loved ones not be forgotten. I also enjoy the idea of potentially helping someone on their own genealogical journey, which is why I add photos or memorials of people I might not have a connection to.

If I've requested that memorials be transferred to me, they are either related to me or to my children. I will happily transfer memorials if you are related (in and out of guidelines) and feel free to use the photos I've taken. I'd much rather have someone with a connection to an individual be in charge of their memorial -- this is my personal opinion. I don't play the numbers game.

**If I have helped you in any way, please consider leaving flowers for some of my loved ones:

~ Pam Eder, my best friend who passed away in 2011
~ William Locher, my grandfather, a WWII Vet & Purple Heart Recipient
~ Stanley Lesniowski, my great grand uncle, a PVT in WWI who died in France

Thank you!**
