Dear Primos and near Primos. . . .

I would like to dedicate this issue to */Johanna De Soto/*, with the
greatest gratitude for her faithful support, tireless in seeking out
fascinating websites and tidbits of information. She will be missed,
but family lifetime changes have prompted the decision, which I received
sadly. We wish her great joy in her retirement.

This issue completes the 7th year of Somos Primos online, and the 84th
monthly issue fully available on the web. Thank you for your wonderful
letters. They are greatly appreciated. Please feel welcomed to share
in 2007 your family research or articles of interest that you come across.

Wishing you all the warmest wishes for a wonderful Merry Christmas with
the blessings of health and family.

Sincerely, Mimi
