To honor cousin Mary's 90th birthday, family members from Arizona, Colorado, North Carolina, Ohio, Texas, and of course, Missouri, gathered for lunch in Lee's Summit, MO, just before her 90th on March 5.
There was a whole lot of talking going on, much reminiscing as well as in some cases getting more acquainted with the youngsters of the family.
It'd been over 10 years since C saw Betty (Ball) Prouty; neither of us has changed a bit!
Edmund met some of the Ball/Grainger connection for the first time, Betty & Mel Prouty.
Mary's granddaughter Tiffany and her daughter Brittany were able to get Mary to the lunch without spilling all the beans...she was quite surprised, as we hoped, to see so many family members, and several of us told stories of what Mary's meant to us over the years.
All in all, it was a grand occasion, honoring a lady of great impact on us all, and the matriarch of the family at 90 years young!
