It will once again be held at the Parkersburg City Park in Parkersburg, W.Va
If you plan to come and stay overnight, or for an extra day or two, you might want to check out the
Parkersburg convention and visitors bureau web site.
It lists attractions, lodging and a lot of other information.
You can get on the site at http://www.greaterparkersburg.com/
or just google Parkersburg Convention and Visitors Bureau.
The site has a lot of good information, and you can see pictures aroung the area, including city park.
Remember also, that this year we are honoring Ray Murphy, who served as part of a bomber crew in World War II. It is people like Ray who made it possible to live the life of freedom that we now enjoy.
Ray will be 90 years old by the time of the reunion, and he and his wife, Audrey,were married on May 28, 1949, and have now been married 63 years.
They will both be in attendance at the reunion, if Ray's health permits.
As soon as i can figure out how this blog works, i will post pictures of Ray and Audrey from back in the the day. they have changed it so much since my last post that i can't figure out how to load picture on here.
But i will put it on a later post.
A few words about the reunion.
We will plan to eat around 1:00 but people will be there much earlier, so come when you wish and plan to visit and get re-acquainted with relatives from the past, andget acquainted with family members that you may have never met at all.
Bring a covered dish, some eating utensils and drinks for yourself, and, you might want to bring a chair.
we will have door-prizes, and of course, the annual auction to raise money to continue the reunion into the future.
if you wish to contact me, my e-mail is jerroldmurphy@casinternet.net, and my phone number is
304-295-6113.
We'll look forward to seeing you t the reunion.
