Mr. Benjamin, I have received some complaints about your postings to the
list. My question is: Are you offering your service for free or is it for a
fee? If you provide the obits as a free service, thank you very much. If you
are charging for the service, that violates the rules of RootsWeb and I will
have to ask you to refrain from further postings. Please clarify so I will
be able to respond appropriately when questioned.
