C.O.P.S

Was a fun and successful night for the Northern California chapter of C.O.P.S- Concerns of police survivors. We sponsored this fundraiser in memory of Brad Moody- fallen Richmond officer.

18 days

and counting..

Until my first weekend off since June. So.Excited.

I am heading out to utah for General Conference and will be seeing some amazing people whilst I am there. I'll be staying with my family in Provo and will hopefully see all of my friends while I am there!

Family history

I am a history geek at heart. Every now and then I plug away at my family geneology. I made a huge breakthrough the other night (stayed up till 4am) because of this website:

John Shepherd, Jr

I emailed the site administrator and we filled in the gaps. I had what he didn't, and he had what I didn't.

SUCCESS! Now I just need to add some photos my grandpa's sister had and that side will be complete. He has updated his website to include the info I gave him. My goal next year is to visit my family cemetary in Illinois.

Next up is my grandpa's mom's side..I'm stuck at her grandparents. And my nana's dad's and mom's sides. I'm stuck at her dad's parents (although I have a copy of the 1930 census ..pretty rad seeing their names and what they did) and her mom's side. Nana is a bit shakey on details. I dont think she liked her family much lol I'm going to hit a road block with her family because her grandparents are immigrants from Germany.
