JANET TAYLOR PASSES AWAY AT AGE 82

Former member Janet Taylor died June 13, 2005 after a long illness. Janet joined Questing Heirs in April 1998 and served as Publicity Chairman before she became incapacitated. Many of us remember Janet not only for her bright red hair, but most of all for her super intelligence.

Alas, Janet was one of those people who never got around to organizing her genealogy and writing it up. Nobody was more capable of doing this than Janet, whose life work was writing and editing for a number of venues from newspapers to technical manuals. After Janet became ill, Questing Heirs was given her raw genealogy research material as she had no children and no family who were interested in it. Linda Artuso then took on the task of organizing the material and seeing that it was sent to the Family History Library in Salt Lake City. I am sure that Janet would thank Linda for doing such a good job.
