Am happy to have that. Patricia Jackson Schmidt, CHS Class of '59 Thank you, Anne. I have visited your site and it is very interesting! Am happy to have that. I can't wait to get started!! I've been telling everyone about it and they are just as shocked as I was that College Station has a department that focuses on heritage. I'm looking forward to helping get the word out and being involved! Thank you again for providing me with this really cool opportunity. This semester is going to be great! Morgan Hester, Heritage Programs intern Thank you two (Anne and susan Irza) so much for what you did yesterday. I’m so awed/humbled that it went so well and at the wonderful reaction of the crowd. Anne, you and Melvin have coordinating these events down. Susan, thank you especially for the nice introduction. I had forgotten some of the things you mentioned. J You add dignity and a professional bearing to the post of Chair of the Historic Preservation Committee. Barbara Althaus I like the new "Fridge Flyer" and have downloaded two copies, one for the Fridge and one for the computer table. Neat‐o! Peggy Hope Thanks, Anne...I'm definitely going to share this stuff with Russ....he loves it! Linda Harvell (re: Bexar Archives Online)
