Hello Dave,

I found your website while trying to verify the death of my classmate "Lynne" Bodine, who attended W F West High School in Chehalis, our sophomore year, 1960).

I believe I have found the right person, and believe she was b. (12 or 21) April, 1944 Chehalis, WA. Social Security index shows she died (Linda L Slaymaker) 10 March 2006, last residence Rochester, WA. Another source says she died in Fords Prairie (b. abt 1945, d. abt 2006).

Are you her brother? If so, I send condolences also. I applaud all your genealogy research... and hope you will reply. I am working on the 50th reunion of our class of 1962, and want to remember her in the reunion booklet. Can you verify the above?

Thank you so much,

Janet Tallman Brown, class of 1962
