That's fine it's worth it to me. If you need more just let me know,
because there from what I hear are alot of Skinner's and Thune's there.
You did not give me an address to send the money.... unless you accept
PayPal

Dear Pam,
We will need your mailing address to send you copies.
The library does usually ask $1.00 donation for each obituary.
Since most of your information was already in a file, your fees
would not
be that much, around $5.00 probably.
If you send your address we will send the copies with a bill.
