RIP, JRR

One of the reasons that I love genealogy is the connections made with distant relatives. Almost without exception the contacts have been enlightening and fun. JJR, my half second cousin twice removed (!), was one such person, and he just died. He went out of his way to be helpful to me in researching our common ancestor Britta Ann Green. 

Britta was my great-great-great grandmother with her first husband John L. McGuire. J was Britta's grandson with her second husband Mike Flynn/Flin. Britta was known as "Granny Flynn" till the day she died. 

Thanks for the help, JRR, and RIP.
