1999. a few years too late. i am magdalena saucedo. my grandmother from my dad's side is patricia (coleman) roddis. i received rita's book a few years ago but i misplaced it during a moved. i'd love to know more about my roots. i'm actually planning a trip to europe this spring and plan to go to germany. this side of my heritage has always intrigued me. if any of you are still involved with this website i'd love to be in touch. thanks. magdalena saucedo, los angeles, ca
