The reunion was a
success and attended by 68 people
Everyone seemed to
enjoy the activities and visiting with each other. And the good food, of course.
There was a pinata
for the kids, made by sandra, denise and myself- an angry bird as requested by
yssenia.
The dessert contest
was won by andrew lermuseaux, a butterscotch pie, with rhea winning 2nd
prize for her peach cobbler, and sharon in 3rd with her almond bars.
There was a special
recognition of rhea cahall for her selflessness, family support, willingness to jump in and
help, medical advice, and loving kindness…what a good sister, mother, cousin,
grandmother, and great grandmother!!!!
And role model…testimonials from family were well deserved. Rhea received a nurses cap and corsage. Love you rhea
The bingo was a big
success, and many prizes were passed out.
Thanks to tina and greg for donating a jenga set for raffle, and to
misty for donating a print for raffle, too…..everyone seemed to enjoy
personalizing the jenga blocks….rhea was the winner of the jenga, and
kelley won the print of rainbow bridge

We missed wilson and
his laugh and smile.
Special thanks to
sandra, vickie, judy sue, denise, renee, andrew, jr, and aaron for all the help
getting ready. As grandma mildred used
to say,
many hands make light work…
Marshall often
said “by jiggers”
Barn would say
“i’m so dry i’m farting dust”
Crick said “he
worked like a cranberry merchant”
I know mom was
tired afterwards, and took a nap for several days….but she loved it, and
visiting with everyone and seeing the kids playing together was great
