RE: WANDA SHAUVER
I was going over our sponsorships and there was Aunt Wanda! I don't know why we didn't get her sponsored when we did Uncle Jim's. You are Welcome. BTW if one can be sure that anyone is in Heaven, we are SURE she is!
Take Care

I found information (published book: True Heroines - [2000, Turner Publishing])that says in 1977 she was buried in Eastern Cemetery, Louisville KY. Go to Google Books and enter her name and Louisville KY.

RE: Teddy Lester Fernau
Yes, I knew the picture was posted by another local photographer. I appreciate her efforts, so do not want to diminish them.

I just wanted you to know I had placed a clearer photo so you could let me know if you wanted me to remove it.

Removal of Photographs
Is there any way possible that you could remove the two photographs you posted on Michael P. Gordon's find a grave page? I appreciate you adding the pics, I am attempting to take down some of the photographs and these are duplicated. Thank you for placing them there. Bob Gordon

Bonnie,
Would you please be so kind to credit "The Officer Down Memorial Page" for this memorial?
e.g. Information & photo courtesy of www.odmp.org (would be sufficient).
Thanks.
Kind regards
Diane
