People have written me saying, "I wish I could have been there to meet Eva." You have had an enormous and positive effect on lots of peoples' lives. For that we say thank you!
I agree with everything Roger said! It is an honor to know this very special lady! Eva is intelligent and fun to be with. We're blessed to have her in our
"Boothie family!"

Thanks to everyone who worked on the conference. Just like last year, I learned things from the presentations and heard things from the attendees that got me excited and energized in my efforts.

On Friday, we met the tour bus at McNair where John Elliott gave a WONDERFUL talk in the Courtroom.
Then, next morning, the Conference! It was so great to see everyone again....
More photos of the Conference - Here's Joe Beckert -

Rick Smyth giving a talk on the Gourley family with John Howard as a "Conspirator!"
That night - the Banquet! It was grand and Barry's talk was phenomenal. He's not only a wonderful historian but a true showman as well!
Yours truly.....
Barry gave a fabulous talk -
Afterwards, a few of us got together for a photo op....

Great photos, Betty
