Last call to make your plans for the annual reunion! If you have not made arrangements
to attend the reunion you should do it now.
Margaret sent me a couple of maps to help you out in locating the more important sites
in the area of the reunion. You may note that she has indicated the location of her home
on one of the maps. I am not sure, but I believe she mentioned that if anyone could not
find any other camping space or an available motel, they could camp on her front lawn. No
need to call - just pitch your tent and be there when she wakes up in the morning. She
should enjoy it.
Margaret says she has a new grandchild, and Bud a new great-grandchild, so you can
expect both of them to be particularly boastful this year. Dorothy says that Margaret is
an unusually aggressive grandmother so it may be best to avoid her altogether.
Only a few of you have sent back your family information forms. Of course, there is no
compulsion to send in your form (or contributions) - it is entirely voluntary. You will
note, however, that Don and Elinor did not send theirs in last year. This year, Elinor was
quite prompt.
As you all may have expected, there has been no word from the low-down, no-good
Richardson individual living in Ohio who has never attended even a single family reunion.
(Due to my extreme respect for Bill Henry, I will not mention the name of this
thoroughly disreputable individual.)
Because the low-down, no-good Richardson individual living in Ohio who has never
attended even a single family reunion has not returned his family information form,
and has no apparent intention of attending even a single family reunion, I shall have to
fill in his family's information the best I can. Therefore, I am asking all of you to
think hard and come up with all the stories from this individual's past which most clearly
delineate his complete lack of character. There are a number of episodes from his past
which I am quite certain he would not want repeated under any circumstances (I can think
of several that are so disgusting they would gag a maggot and make a hooker blush) so
let's collect all of these tales and make sure they are published where all the world can
read them. Because he has never attended even a single family reunion we all know
that he is beyond shame, but perhaps we can induce some shame in some other member of his
immediate family.
I have completed the editing and formatting of Mary Taylor's family history and I had
intended to include it in this mailing, but my laser printer is having serious problems so
it will have to wait. Besides, I am not sure if I want to send something so worthwhile to
that low-down, no-good Richardson individual living in Ohio who has never attended even
a single family reunion. With any luck I should be able to have it printed and ready
to distribute to anyone who attends the reunion, which will naturally exclude that low-down,
no-good Richardson individual living in Ohio who has never attended even a single family
reunion.
We will see you all at the reunion (with the exception of a certain nameless and
shameless Richardson individual). Call Margaret if you have any questions.
