    Correspondence
    From Archie-WA6IGX #998: Thanks for the birthday card. #80. Wife and I celebrated our 57th anniversary on Sept. 14th. Went back to Colorado a couple of weeks ago for my wife's sister's 50th. We haven't traveled in our motorhome since we moved, but hope to get down to the SW (Palm Springs & AZ area) this winter.
    Sorry I haven't checked in to the net for quite awhile. We moved in March from our home of 33 years in Nevada City, CA to Rocklin, CA. We are closer to our Children & brothers & sisters.
    Don't have an antenna up yet, but hope to soon. I miss checking in to the Cousins' nets. Hope things are going well for you and all the Midwest Cousins.

    Ken-WB7FBL #772 writes: Thanks again for the birthday card. It's nice to know that I'm still remembered. Thought I would help out the MWCC with a little contribution for the postage, etc.

    From Audrey, XYL of Dick-K9ZNZ #112: Richard will be spending his 1st birthday in Heaven. He passed away 8/4/08, but thank you for remembering.

    Jim-W7ZHQ #1276 writes: I'm among the growing group of cousins that really enjoy the birthday card every year. It reminds me that it's my birthday again! Thanks a lot cousins.

    From Cathy, daughter of Don-K3BUH #494: Dad was pleased to get his birthday card in March. Unfortunately he passed away on June 2, 2009 after a fight with cancer. He often wished he could have been able to sign in to the MWCC's but his equipment was on a different level of his house. Thanks for his friendship over the years.

    Frank-W9NVF #204 writes: Thanks for the birthday card. Sure is nice to be remembered. Hope a few bucks helps a little. Living in a retirement facility at age 85 and only have a 10 watt qrp for the low bands. Not too much to work with at this time. Best wishes to all the Cousins. 73's, Frank.

    From Cathy, XYL of Wilson-W2HTK #162: Please be aware that W2HTK is now a silent key. Even though in recent years he was unable to be on the air, he always looked forward to your greeting on his birthday. Thank you so much for remembering him over the years.

    Herb-KBØLCE #1050 writes: Thanks for the birthday card. When I moved to the hills of Imperial, my AU5 vertical just wouldn't work 80m. Then in Feb 2004 my wife had a stroke. I'm her care giver. I'm going to add more radials in an effort to increase the ability of the AU5 to do better. Thanks again for the birthday cards. Each one brightens my day.

    From Ruth XYL of Curley-AB5CA #941: I want to let you know that my husband died in March of '08. Thank you and the Midwest Country Cousins for remembering him each year on his birthday. He was a radioman on an LST in the Pacific during W.W.II, so he was a whiz with the code. Thank you again for your kindness in remembering him.

    Bob-W2BBX #823 writes: Please accept the enclosed postage and cash to help with the ongoing mailings and other administrative duties you do. I sure appreciate receiving my birthday card from the Cousins each year. It has arrived without fail for many years. Thanks for all you do. I'm glad to help in this small way.

    From Barbara XYL of Fred-KØDWZ #282: Mike, Sorry to tell you, but Fred passed away on Sept 25, 2010. He suffered from Alzhiemer's for the past fifteen years. Thank you for remembering Fred.

    Bob-W2BBX #823 writes: Please accept the attched contents to help in a small way with the MWCC administration. It has been some time since I have checked in with the MWCC. I must make a sincere effort soon to do so. I know I would enjoy the experience. Meanwhile, thanks so much for all you do on behalf of all the Cousins. I know my birthday card arrives right on time each year. It is appreciated so much.
