Valerie:
Ferna Ekaut-Bels is my Grandaunt. Edward Ekaut her brother is my grandfather. I know George and Mary Lou both. I moved to Arizona in 1979 with my folks, my mother is Judy Ekaut-McKercher. My Uncle Gene still lives in the Detroit area.
I'm always amazed by how the internet brings relatives together who never know they existed. I am attaching my current direct email address.
Sincerely,
David McKercher
