I thought I would post the following here in hopes someone might shed some light on Sterling BOYCE (BOICE/variations). Sorry for the attachments, but thought they might help towards this end!
Please post to this site, if appropriate, or directly to me.
Thank you,
Harleigh
>Good Morning Velma and Bertie:
