Trying to get in touch with my Aunt YoshikoWoodard. I sent her a Christmas card and it just came back to me. I called the phone number that I had used before but she didn’t answer. I had her Maple Valley address but not her current address in Renton, Washington. I would appreciate any help you can give me. I am James and Euline Woodards daughter.
