Corrigenda
Two items from the fall issue require correction . Sincere apologies to those concerned .
First , Lyle Meeres was the writer of our travel feature ,“ Rhine River Cruise .” The photographs were also his .
Second , in the article ,“ A Special Relationship : Grandparents and Grandchildren ” written by Marilyn Marks , a word changed during the editing process changed the meaning of one of the statements . In the middle column on Page 24 , the statement “… denial of access by grandparents to their grandchildren ,” should read ,“… denial of access of grandparents to their grandchildren .”
Again , sincere apologies to Lyle Meeres and to Marilyn Marks for these errors .
