Family Reunion

The family reunion will be Sunday, June 13 from 12:00 - 4:00 at the gazebo in the Leeds Memorial Park by the playground. (This is the same place it has been for the last several reunions.)

We are keeping the food simple this year. We will be having hamburgers, hot dogs & assorted chips. I will provide plates, cups, napkins and any utensils we'll need. If anyone wants to bring something for dessert, please only bring snacks such as cookies, Little Debbie cakes or something like that; finger food that doesn't require serving, plates or utensils. Everyone should bring their own drinks & ice.

I believe we have the food handled but I'll let you know if anything else is needed.

I do need to know asap if you plan to attend so that I can plan the quantities.

Please pass along this information to anyone you know who may be interested who doesn't have internet or email.

We hope to see you there.

Reunion Canceled

The reunion for this year has been canceled due to a lack of response.

The idea of trying to have a reunion in the fall has been suggested. If there is any interest in doing that, please contact me by the end of July and suggest dates that will work for your family. Without a definite, substantial response, I will not make any further plans.

Family Reunion Announcement

This year's reunion is June 14th from 1:00 - 4:00 at the Leeds Walking Track park in the same pavilion as usual, near the large playground.
I will cover the $50.00 deposit and will provide the plates, cups, napkins and eating utensils. As soon as I know who will be attending, I'll be posting a list of what each family needs to bring including the money for the pavilion rental, etc. It is therefore important that I hear from everyone as soon as possible to know if they will be attending. Please contact anyone you know to pass along the information in the event they haven't heard and let me know any that you know will be coming.
I'd like to have a complete list of all who will be attending (including children) by Memorial Day. Plans will be finalized by the end of May based on the information you provide.
Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions.
Thanks to all.
Grace

It's been a while

Well, there doesn't appear to be much to say. I've only been contacted twice.

I can tell you that I have had to stop working due to my health. It was a very difficult decision but my doctor convinced me that it meant my life so like it or not, here I am. I've been out since late June and am feeling better than when I was working with so much mental & physical stress. I am greatful for my family in this time, especially my husband Russ. I have been so blessed to have him.

The rest of the family is doing well. Lots of sports, gymnastics and school activities. Jake's (Heather's son) baseball team went to the state All Star playoffs. They did very well. Alex (Jamie's son) is on the Leeds Elementary Jump Rope Team. If you ever get the chance, check it out. It's worth it. All of the kids are doing well and I'm proud that they are always on the honor roll.

It's hard to think back all the way to June to catch up with all that's been going on with me but I'll try to update this every now & then. It'd be nice if you would send info to me about your family from time to time. Send pictures and I'll put them on the site.

Don't forget to send ideas for next year's reunion so we can toss them around.

That's all for now.

Joan's Good News

This is an email I received from Aunt Joan (Wyatt). Please keep her in your prayers and don't forget to thank Him for this wonderful news.

"I have the most wonderful news to tell you. Last week when I saw the Dr he said my
CA125 blood test was 90; I asked him what was normal and he said he wanted my to get

down to the teens. Well that kind of took the wind out of me. I am only suppose to have 2 more treatments, but I know they may have to give me some more chemo in order to get it that low. I had blood work done today and I asked the nurse what my count was originally and she said she didn't have my chart. She also said 35 was negative so I took that to mean anything below that was good. Well she just called me a little while ago and told me my count is 23. Hallelujah so surely the next 2 treatments will bring it down to the teens. Isn't that great? I really had a rough weekend, stayed in bed all day Sat. but I am a lot better today. Pass my good news on please."
