Jasia,
ReplyDeleteAs you know and as I wrote to Diana Haddad today, the California Genealogical Society and Library blog owes its start to the series you wrote on Declining Memberships and the magazine's article about it and you. That was almost three years ago and now I'm being honored along side you in its pages. That's amazing! It is a testament to your sage advice and counsel. You continue to inspire me and so many others. Thank you for all you do for the gen-community. Congratulations!
Congratulations, Jasia. Very well-deserved. You were one of the inspirations for me to start my own blog and I know that you have inspired so many others as well. As Kathyrn says, it is an honor to be on the list with you!
ReplyDeleteYeah for Creative Gene! Our "gathering place" for the Carnival of Genealogy and the home for your personal family history stories certainly deserves this honor. Congratulations, Jasia!
