It is sad, that most of us knew Vaiva only from her work, from what other people told. It is a great miss not to have known her personally. Yet she was ready to help even if she did know the person. Between you and her my mom was able to send me a couple of real family treasures from home. It is so wonderful to keep track of this blog and get to know you and Vaiva through your family history. Thank you for sharing your history, love and life with all of us.
