Michael and Claude,

I am sorry to hear of your loss.

You probably are wondering who I am. I am your father's first cousin once removed. Marion Renner Glover was my great grandmother. My mother was Marion Julia Caywood Waddell. I have done a lot of family genealogy and, if you are interested, you can contact me at [email protected] or 281-759-5408.

My sincere condolences,

Kay Waddell Laycock
