My name is Madeline Gosser Steege. I live in Oregon. I am a niece to Aunt Helen. Myron Edward Gosser was my father. He passed in 1991. God rest his soul. I miss him very much. I wish that Aunt Helens birthday was a great day filled with love and family. Would love to hear from some cousins. steege1111@charter.net
