no i dont think that she is deceased, i just havent had much luck in finding her current location. i think that she has married though. my only lead so far has been through her mother, and i havent even really pursued that except to see that she is still at the same address, which is amazing that she is. thank you for the encouragement as well! hopefuly i will get up the courage to make contact and i pray that you are right.
