Hello Brooke, I was shocked to find your posting for Ora Samuel Pefley as he is my great grandfather! Lewis Glenn Pefley ( as he uses it) is my grandfather and will be 84 on June 20th! Yesterday I gave them a home video I made for them for their 63 wedding annaversary and fineally was willing to give up the photo albums ( all 25) for me to scan and make more movies for them! He is not well and has had 2 strokes since Thanksgiving night. Can you please tell me if you have an actual obit clipping and if so could you copy and email it to me at ALostAngl@Hotmail.com...? Also, are we directly related? My grandfather will be so touched by my finding this and I want to do this for him! I now have many photos myself and have taken on family historian so to speak and I know this will also mean the world to my uncle as his middle name is Ora after my great grandfather. You have no idea how estatic I am to have found this and hope to hear from you very soon!
Thank You SOOOO Much! Donna Pefley

Donna, I read your messagage which you posted several years ago about your grandfather, Lewis Glenn Pefley, who I find is now deceased. Do you have a copy of his obit so I may add it to my file? He was a distant cousin (6th, once removed) but I would like to update my file.

Thanks
