A lot of information, and a big THANK YOU!!!

First off I want to send out a huge THANK YOU to a good friend Talonnie Prince, who offered some help in trying to find information about Harry Kinder. She was able to find a lot of really good info for me. She found an obit, and a step daughters name. So Talonnie, thank you so very much for your willingness to help me out. I appreciate it so very much, and owe you big time.

With this info, I was able to track down Harry's step son-in-law who was willing to talkt o me a little bit about Harry's life, and was also able to give me Gail's (the stepdaughter) phone number. I am now just waiting for a call back from Gail.

Here is his Obituary.
