Dear Find a Grave family,

Please accept our sincere appreciation for your dedication to discovering lost ancestors.

Your commitment to walking countless miles through cemeteries transcribing, documenting and photographing headstones is invaluable! By publishing your discoveries on Find a Grave you help populate the branches of so many sparse family trees while bringing immense satisfaction to others. The thrill of finally discovering where forebears are interred is an indescribable feeling.

As we work together, please be kind to your fellow volunteers because each of us share a common goal of discovering, enhancing and preserving an individual's brief life history. As caretakers it is our responsibility to do our very best, constantly striving for accuracy and thoroughness. Families depend on the pride we take in presenting dignified memorials of their loved ones. And if we do it right, long after we are gone their descendants will appreciate the history that we have recorded.

It is our privilege to belong to this family and we extend our heartfelt thanks for your enduring labor of love, more valued than you can possibly imagine!

Very sincerely,
Bill W. and Cecilia Marie
