Greetings!!!
This is a rough, rough copy of the newsletter I'm going to write. I didn't get a lot of feedback from you all, but I'm going to do it anyway. I'd like to hear from you all at least once every 3 months. Let me know what's going on and I'll pass it along. We don't all have the luxury of living near each other and I think we miss out on a lot that families can offer each other. Maybe we can communicate more through this. I know we keep in touch, but everyone doesn't keep in touch with each family member. This will allow everyone to hear from everyone if everyone at least writes me four times a year. This doesn't take the place of our present contact, but it is in addition to what we already have. Well, here goes!

History:
Who doesn't know that George Bell, Sr. and Mollie Levingston Bell were the great grandparents? Did you know that great grandma had two kids and 1 on the way when they jumped the broom? OOOH!
Memories:
Remember when Aunt Callie gave Wallace 50cents and told him to go to college?
Aunt Zannie would yell as she passed the house "Be back to spend the black"!!
In Loving Memory of: Shinet Bryant 17 January 1899 - 2 March 1970
We'll think of Daddy on 21 March.
News:
Guess who showed up at my house on Sunday, 8 March! James Waylon! He was in the area visiting Univ of Wa. He sure is a nice guy. I'm proud to be his aunt.
FOOTNOTE: As you can see, I can't do this without all of you, so please participate. Help! Keep me off the phone! (Smile) I love all of you. rik
