Apologies! Our family tree is the Saies/Warlow tree, not Saies/Worrall.

I had the pleasure of knowing my lovely 3rd cousin, Dawn, through Ancestry DNA. I very much appreciate the Shepherd branch information that Dawn gave me as part of our Saies/Worrall family tree. I will always have warm thoughts of Dawn when I pass on her information to others.

I am most grateful to Dawn for providing her DNA record: it is a lasting legacy that helps bring family together. Through DNA matches, several relatives have already discovered their location in our family tree. Without doubt, there will be many more.

Condolences to Lianne, Sherrie and Darren. Thinking of you at this sad time.
