  1. Hello family, I'm so excited about us getting together, have tons of ideas. I would like for us to form committees to decide who will work on what.I had an idea for us to all submit pictures of our moments to remember and have a slide show of the pics at are welcoming ceremony. Also, develop a legacy of helping our kids succeed in life. A lot of our kids don't really know each other like we did. We have enough professional people in our family that can have workshops on the things that can improve our overall family survivial. Let's do this.

    Love ya

  8. Hi family, first of all, thanks Gina, you are such a fantastic daughter. Main reason for this posting is my brother, Raymond will be out of town during the month of July, June too. He will be in Africa. He would be available in August, he is half of the family all by himself......kidding...but he would be so missed. Also we are looking into Yorktown YMCA and Gosnold Park for the family union location. More feedback on that topic if a few days. Stay tune. Love you all. C'mon, we need input.

  9. Hello family,
    The embassy suites no longer have rooms available for the weekend of the reunion. I will check with other hotels inthe same vicinity and get back with you.

  10. Hello,
    I just wanted to say that I had a great time at the family reunion; I really enjoyed being surrounded by family. Also, my sister took some pictures at the family reunion and I wanted to share them with everyone, but I don't see how to post them.
