I'm sure she would have loved to be part of such a project. There are just so many articles I'd like to read from past issues. The job would be daunting but well worth it. Perhaps there is a way that us lowly remote members could assist with the project. I would be honored to assist. I miss Laurie's comments and still look for them every time I open this site.

Dennis, thank you for your kind offer of assistance! I will let you know how and when this might happen, once we figure out how to make it happen. As I said to Eva, I think, going forward, the Surratt Courier is likely to be in digital form. While I am "old school" and prefer printed copies, the times and costs involved may have made that a thing of the past. And I am very excited about the prospect of making the archives available online as well. I, too, miss Laurie's comments on this site (and seeing her in person), but I am ever so grateful to Roger Norton for creating and maintaining a website where the wisdom and wit of Laurie could be captured and shared with those who were not privileged to know her, now and into the future.
