Dear Ranchos Members;
I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and everyone of you for your contributions whether major or minor to this group. You know something is great when you cannot imagine life before you had it. It's like the microwave or the toaster, they just sit there on your counter and you may choose to use it or not but when you need it and it's not there you know you have to have it. All of you are like my microwave, or toaster, each a different brand, color, size and shape but useful and indispensable none the less. I can't imagine life without Nuestros Ranchos and that means "YOU"
But most of all I owe a big Abrazo to Joseph Puentes and Arturo Ramos, Joseph for having a vision of an on-line Genealogical Group and for making his vision a reality and Arturo for taking The Ranchos Group and turning it into the Mega Nuestros Ranchos that it is today. Arturo and Joseph are each forward and optimistic looking individuals and while I don't personally know you Arturo, I thank you for all you have done in 2006 for Nuestros Ranchos. I know I can't begin to imagine how much work this is for each of you.
I know there are others who have made substantial contributions to this group in support of our common goal, to search for our ancestors and learn of our history, you know who you are and my hat off to all of you!
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care...................May your stockings be filled with great love and much joy!!
Happy Christmas to all and to all a good night.............Feliz Navidad a todos!!

Thank you for your kind words and support
I greatly appreciate all of the kind words, but I must say that I have received a great deal more from this group than what I have given. I sincerely appreciate the effort that everyone has put into making this group what it is. I can't imagine that I would have gotten as far with my research as I have without the guidance of my primos in this group.
Many Thanks
Alicia,
That is great. You articulated the feelings we all have for what Joseph and Arturo have done with Nuestros Ranchos.

Alicia, you have the gift of words to express what most of us feel about Joseph and Arturo's efforts in giving us a forum for research to reclaim our families..
My thanks and best wish's to you both as well as the rest of my primos on this site.
Abrazos, Linda in Everett
