Tom McAvoy: The last time I saw or talked to John Neiler was at the Colorado Springs reunion a number of years ago. I do not know his address. My address is the same: e-mail - GeorgeMeline@ cs.com and mailing address is P.O. Box 2160, Shasta, CA 96087.
Do you remember the photo you took at the Anaheim reunion at the movie studio grounds? We didn't get together at the reunion but you recognized us in the background of one of your pictures and sent it to me. I'm sure I have it somewhere.

Ben: It's just me again ... bothering you ... because I have lost the
Email which gave such complete details that anyone could ask for. We now
have children wanting to read those plans so they can choose one day to spend
with us at the reunion. THAT is a good and happy thing! Hope they
can convince their adult daughter to come also.
You've already figured out which Email I need sent to me again. The
date I believe was about 1-20.
THANKS for YOUR help to me AGAIN.
