Feedback from a relative of a subject from my book

A few weeks back I found online the great-grandchild, not a grown adult, of a figure I’ve spent many years researching and many months writing about. She very generously offered to read the draft of that section, and here’s what she had to say:

Barry… thank you for sending me the 3rd and 4th section of the chapter on the history of seltzer as a business, which covers the life and times of my great-grandfather, William B. Keller. I just finished reading it.
Wow. I bet no one else will tell you this when they read your book: it made me cry. šŸ™‚ There are… so many familiar threads of personality that I see in him, this man of whom you wrote, that I see in my dad and even in myself. Uncanny. And so lovely. It’s great, Barry. Really, really great. You tell a good story with all the facts mixed in… I like the way you write.
Please keep me posted! Can’t wait to read more…
