Dear CCI Friends,
I met with Pamela Tetarenko and Volodya Shestakov this past weekend.
They were here seeking my advice for the direction of CCI in its current manifestation.
We have had long discussions about CCI’s “Sharon Tennison book”.
They would like to preserve CCI’s history and my book does represent a significant core of that history. We all agree that there are additional informations that could be added for the first time. I’ve agreed to add more over the following weeks.
For further information, I want to share with you Pam Tetarenko’s background. Pam’s Great Grandmother was Alexandra Babkin in 1912, a very challenging time. Her great-grandparents, both Russian, made the very difficult decision to take her grandfather to Canada.
We had dinner tonight and discussed how to link all of this for your readership in the coming months.
With gratitude to each of you,
Sharon Tennison
