Instructions for transcribing obituaries on this website.

1. Click on the "Obit_Unassigned" link below, then select one of the obituaries that have a "0 COMMENTS" below it.

2. Add a comment that you are working on the selected obituary (so that no one else types it up too.)

4. Open a Windows Notepad window and transcribe the obituary as-is. Leave a blank line between paragraphs.

Facebook Request from Korea!

Today, I received a Facebook friend request from my first Korean missionary companion in Korea, Elder Kim Do Gyun. He now goes by Do-kyun Duke Kim, which is quite amusing to me, as he's not quite the stature of "The Duke".
