I'm very sorry for your families loss. My mother, Betty Johannesen Schott, is Harold's cousin. Her father was Frederick August Johannesen. I happened to see the obituary today, and looked in my Johannesen family directory published in December 1997 by Mike Johannesen that my mother had given me, and was able to retrace the family tie.

While my mothers memory seems to have failed her these days, I extend sympathy on her behalf, and would love in the future to connect with any Johannesen family members sometime.

With sympathy -
