24 Jan 08 email from Susan Weston [granddaughter of Amy [Van Wickle] Roberts -- I performed a random Google search of my great uncle's name Reed M[arion] Roberts, Jr." and your VW website turned up with interesting information on my dear departed grandmother. Mimi, as my sister Julie and I called her, died shortly before she could see her first great grandchild, my oldest son Alexander Reed Fulton, b. 1989 in Colorado. For the record, I am Susan Lee Weston, b. 1961 in Florida. My sister Julie Diane Weston was b. in 1963 also in Florida. My second son, Jai Rajendra Rajogopal was b. in Denver, CO in 1999. My grandmother wrote a personal observations column for the Grand Rapids newspaper in the late 70s and early 80s. She was got a personal invitation to visit the inauguration of President Ford, whom she said she met while a dance instructor. I think of her often and it warms my heart to see your web page on her.
