I do have hope to connect again, with the precious family of Erwin “Tim”, both names of which I heard growing up. My grandmother Genevieve Ostic would prefer Erwin, if memory serves me. Peggy, we have talked since my mother passed in 2013 , but to connect with cousin Jim would be great too. Mom had kept all the letters and artwork and I have it all now. Bless you all.
