Dear Bartlett Eight,

We want to know EVERYTHING each of you Bartlett siblings and your children can remember about the life history of this wonderful family. We want to know all the best 'stuff' about *Walter Glenn and *Alta Fern Stokes Bartlett. We want to know their personality traits and physical traits, we want to know how you are like them and how WE are like you. You might say this is even more of an Autobiography as we want the histories of the living members of the Bartlett family as much as those who have passed on. With a little priority placed on this endeavor and some practice, this can become a very simple way to share all those stories and pictures that we are missing. No more 'bits and pieces'. We all want the whole story. Let's have it here. It is our gathering place. A place every member of the Bartlett family can come to hear stories about Grandma and Grandpa Bartlett. And, yes, stories about our parents; the wonderful 'Bartlett Eight'! We do not even KNOW how wonderful you are because we have been starved of your stories. We are HUNGRY to know you Tammy, Sherry, Teresa, Beverly, *Alana, John, LoVina Kay and Fern. This is for us, your posterity, and we are begging for your stories because we love you and we want our children to know where they came from. :)

Love,

Your (ever-growing) Posterity

*Deceased
