Dear Cousins,
This will be my final message to you before the reunion. It has been a
wonderful experience getting to know you all through my computer & through
letters. You have all been so supportive & responsive concerning this
reunion which made it so rewarding for me personally. You are all a great
bunch of Casts, Walkers, Humphrey's, Heatleys, etc etc etc. Even though I'm
a Cast by marriage I feel as close to you all as if you were my own cousins.
It is my prayer that all of you that attend the reunion arrive safely, enjoy
yourself completely & make it home safely.[Please don't make anyone mad out
on that highway]. I hope those of you that are unable to attend this reunion
will make it to the next one in 2003. I will keep you all on my mailing list
which has become quite extensive.
IMPORTANT>>>>>WE NEED A HEAD COUNT. PLEASE, PLEASE, IF IT IS HUMANLY
POSSIBLE LET ME KNOW IF YOU WILL BE AT THE REUNION. THAT IS THE ONLY WAY WE
WILL BE TOTALLY PREPARED. WE NEED TO KNOW HOW MANY WILL BE THERE SO THERE
WILL BE ENOUGH FOOD, DRINKS ETC. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO SEND A LONG MESSAGE JUST
SAY YOU WILL OR WILL NOT BE THERE. I WOULD APPRECIATE IT SO
MUCH.>>>>>>>>>>>>>>THANK YOU
Don't forget to bring your FAMILY HISTORY TO SHARE. Your genealogy
charts,[zerox copies to hand out], pictures, albums, bibles & hopefully some
of us will have wonderful old family stories to tell. There will be a
microphone available so you will be able to introduce yourself & your family
ancestral lineage.
HOW ABOUT A HOE-DOWN. Bring your musical instruments & your singing voices &
we'll have a party. There will be electrical outlets.
If possible, bring chairs or pallets, ice chest with drinks, anything that
will make you comfortable. There will be some seating & tables already there
but I'm not sure how much.
Saturday will be POT LUCK. Bring a covered dish. [Don't everybody bring
potato salad & Pork n Beans, giggle]If you are traveling & this would be
impossible for you to do, you might bring something from a fast food
restaurant or sandwich makings [which is one of my favorite foods]. Whatever
is available & convenient for you. If you are unable to bring anything,
please don't give it a second thought. I'm positive there will be enough to
go around.
For those who will be arriving on Friday the 31st of May we will have a tour
of local cemeteries available.
