I will always be greatfull for Susie´s collection of family memories. I was with her and her mother in Florida in 2022 when Susie showed me an article she had found in her family searches about my grandfather, Harry Kelley, when he had an accident at the age of 14 near Lockport, NY. I had never heard of this almost fatal accident in family lore. Fortunately, my grandfather regained consciousness after three days and the rest is history. Mary Fallon
