Thanks once again – I have just made out an envelope with their FL address. Will send it out tomorrow.
Yes the family of my generation is getting smaller. That is why I am writing about my life and want to wrap up the Donohoe and Hannigan genealogy. Hopefully Bill III will verify the information that we have, HE might add more information on his family;.

WOW – I did not remember that Bill’s father had passed. The family is getting smaller for your generation.
William J Jolicoeur III has an address of 43 Hawk Feather Circle, Madison, WI 53717-2744.
He and Sharon would appear to be ‘snow birds’ and there is a ‘The Villages, Florida’ address:
1049 Alcove Loop, the Villages, FL 32162-4417. Telephone number is: 352-430-3001 – which is associated with a Voice over Internet system for Embarq (Earthlink/Windstream).
Here is a link to the obituary I found online. I will be making an PDF/image of the document for our records.
