***PLEASE, DO NOT POST OBITUARY PHOTOS TAKEN FROM INTERNET SITES/AND OR FUNERAL HOME SITES ON ANY OF THE MEMORIALS I MAKE (UNLESS YOU HAVE WRITTEN PERMISSION TO USE THEN). IT IS AGAINST FIND A GRAVE RULES AND I WILL ASK YOU AND OR FIND A GRAVE TO REMOVE THEM. THANK YOU..PLEASE RESPECT MY REQUEST.

**UPDATE: July 18, 2021: From Contributor: "DON" on his Find a Grave profile, which also reflects my feelings:

"We don't "own" the memorials we manage - they are not ours. We may create them, we may update them, we may transfer them to others - we are but stewards. They are Find A Grave memorials of human beings, departed. They are not "friends" on a social media network website to be collected like baseball trading cards. And there's no prize for the one who dies with the most (and you know who you are).

The reward (for me) comes from maintaining the most "ACCURATE" and dignified memorials I can. What we record becomes history, and a record in someone else's family tree. We have a responsibility to do a good job of it. It's a privilege and honor."

As of 5/7/2019: I HAVE REMOVED MY EMAIL ADDRESS FROM MY PROFILE PAGE DUE TO HACKING. IF YOU NEED TO CONTACT ME JUST SEND ME A MESSAGE THROUGH ONE OF THE MEMORIALS I MANAGE...THANK YOU

If I manage a memorial for one of your relatives or friends and you'd prefer to manage it yourself, let me know and I'll gladly transfer to you. I am not in it for the numbers. The only ones I won't transfer are my relatives. **PLEASE use the Edit tab to request transfer's and add your contributor number so I know who to transfer too.
---------------------------------
**Unless otherwise specified, my memorials are to be transferred to FIND A GRAVE Administration when I can no longer care for them.
