Can I respectfully request this text be forwarded to Lynda (Bahr) Fullerton on behalf of family?
“My grandfather is Paul A. Bahr, whose brother was William C. Bahr, whose wife was Sally L. Bahr, whose sister was Verna. Your grandmother’s maiden name was Saul, making the Bahr’s very Jewish by heritage. My father is Paul L. Bahr, at 90 years old, Paul A. Bahr’s son, and I think he is your cousin. My dad stayed with Uncle William (Bill), when he went to Drexel University, back in the late 1950s. My dad was given Uncle Bills Japanese war trophy riffle from WWII. I checked 23 and Me, to see if you were part of the data base, but your name did not pop up. Uncle Bill came out to Vienna Ohio, I think when my Grandfather, Paul A. Bahr, passed away in 1986, Uncle Bill visited with David, your brother. Adena, Paul A, Helen, Paul L, and Charlotte would visit your parents annually, but Uncle Bill and family rarely visited Vienna. Before the mid 1980s visit, the last time they came to Vienna Ohio, was before the 1947 tornado. Please reply, and I hope I have given enough family personal information, to show I am family.”

Hi,

I was in San Diego recently visiting clients and noticed a lot of businesses in the area are tightening up their cleaning standards.

That’s exactly where we help — reliable service, detailed inspections, and no headaches.

Would it be worth a quick quote just to compare? No obligation at all.

Best,
