Family Feedback - "Hi Andrew, I received the Kollosche Family History book and it is fantastic. My dad and I have read it through twice and are very excited about it. You and everyone involved did a wonderful job. We love all the info and photos, some of which we haven't seen before. If it weren't for you we would not be reading about our family ancestry. With most fondest regards, Sue, Jeff and Bruce."
