Myrna wrote: I am your Facebook friend who suggested other family members for you and caused trouble. I am Myrna Trauntvein, wife of Leonard Trauntvein, cousin of Neldon. Eva Dixon, Helen Trauntvein and Don Trauntvein are Leonard's siblings. They are the children of Jens Henry Martin and Gladys Rostron Trauntvein. They had a baby brother, James, who died shortly after birth. In birth order they are: James, Eva, Helen, Don and Leonard. We have eight children: Shawn, Melanie, Todd, Eric, AnnMarie, Julie, Kirsten and David. All of them are married and we have 33 grandchildren. Neldon's father and my husband's father were brothers. Neldon's father was also Neldon (Uncle Ned). He was killed (Uncle Ned) when the mine caved in on him. Neldon, the son, was just a baby then.

PS God Bless and thank you.

I have the book but I have been working on the Pitts (my maiden name) side of the family. I do have a Trauntvein family (my family) blog. You can find it at: http://trauntveinhome.blogspot.com/?zx=4895bd3f60185d27. It may not have anything of interest to you. I have not posted since May but will be doing so in the next few weeks. I have just been doing too much else this summer. We are in Ohio right now visiting a son. 

My Name is Vivian Fivecoat

Hi

My name is Vivian Fivecoat and I am trying to put together a family genealogy book and I think we may be related albeit distance wise.  My grandparents on my maternal side were Earl George and Chasta Jean Stevenson.  They had a large family.  My mother Darlene Jean Stevenson was one daughter another was Betty Trauntvien who was married to a Mr. Trauntvien.  They had a son named Neldon Lee Trauntvien who married a woman named Linda.  They had three daughters that I know of Linda Lee, Bridgette and Yvette. 

Can you / would you help me fill in the blanks?  My plans are one or two pages of history bio on each family member along with pictures and copies of birth marriage death certificates.

If we are related can you / would you please send me any of the above documents (copies of course)  filling in any missing information.

I have a “tree” started on genealogy.com

September Diabetes Class Invitation Response

Just emailing you to remind you about our upcoming classes. Thursday 9/6 at 6:00 p.m. - diabetes 101 Thursday 9/13 at 6:00 p.m. - healthy eating/cooking class Hope all is well, Landon Santaquin Pharmacy & Diabetes Center Myrna: Thank you! I really wanted to meet with the dietician. Will she be available on both of those evenings? Landon Hatfield wrote: As I told you on the telephone. She will not be. There is a diabetes class on Wed 9/5 covering physical activity if you're interested. Thanks. Myrna wrote: Thank you. I am not certain I am interested in that one. I will keep walking daily for 30 minutes which, each day, means I have to go farther because I am walking faster. I also garden and do stairs (lots and lots of stairs) but I have always done that or, at least, for the past 12 years. I also have worked Yoga into my routine. I will do Yoga as does one of my daughters in case of rain. I have a couple of DVDs. My daughter is very good at it and I can talk to her. I can usually walk here in Nephi even in the snow. The high school also has an indoor track. I am not worried about the activity now that I am converted to it. I have a tendency to be very OCD about making life-style changes when someone convinces me I need to do so. I am very hopeful of meeting with a registered dietician which has been of untold help to two of my daughters. Neither of them are diabetic but neither of them wants to be. I hope you can help me with that. On of the girl's dietitian (whom she sees monthly) figured out a diet plan for her and helped with the exchange program individualizing it to her. As I have been investigating what I should do, it appears that both BYU and UVSU have diabetics nutrition classes for credit. Of course, I would need to register and pay tuition. I am still angry with myself for using my hypothyroidism as an excuse to put on 20 pounds. I was just so tired all of the time. Weary. I was weary. I see an excellent doctor in Utah Valley for that problem but she did not excuse the weight gain and I should have listened. It took awhile to get the meds regulated but I seem to be doing well with that now. At any rate, thank you.
