I sent Piotr a genealogy report on all the infomation I had on the Dankos. The report was 24 pages long and I didn't include sources. I did want to add one note on the care of my mother's grave. Since I live 3000 miles from where my mom is buried, I only get to visit the grave once or twice a year. I think my sister Bev stops by about once a week and she has been the primary caretaker of the grave for the last 26 years. I know that some of my cousins stop by from time to time, and when they're there, they pull up the weeds and water the flowers. My sister sometimes finds that some anonymous visitor has placed a little garden ornament in amongst the flowers. And as for the podcast - I had a lot of fun talking with Drew Smith. I think Drew planned on talking with me for only about 20 minutes, but we kept talking for about a half hour. Now, Barbara, I'm hoping you'll write another GuestBlog. Your columns always seem to be very popular! I really have to admit, the email from Piotr really made my day! I sent Piotr a genealogy report on all the infomation I had on the Dankos.

I hope he can provide you with more information, but I think you probably have more to share with him. Bet he is amazed at your blog and all that you have. On another note, the cemetery photo is very lovely and one can tell it is tended with loving care. Your mother would be proud. I also heard your podcast, much longer than I expected but I sure didn't mind. I enjoy listening to the guys, and you were an added bonus. You were absolutely fine. Keep up the good work. Steve,
