I’m sure we all remember this movie about six Southern ladies who stuck together and helped each other, and anyone else they knew, in many different ways.
Well, you may recall from my Forum two weeks ago that I was about to start my fifty year high school class reunion just his past weekend.
It was a truly wonderful time that went off without a hitch, thanks to our very own version of those movie magnolias. Several of my classmates have already beat me to it in thanking them profusely for their countless hours of hard work in organizing what was in my opinion the very best reunion we’ve ever had, and that’s saying something since we’ve had nine previous ones, or every five years if you’re counting.
But I would be remiss if I didn’t personally thank them from the bottom of my heart.
So, dear Stacie, Jean, Peg, Cathie, Janet, Lynda, and anyone else who pitched in, and let’s not forget Dave and Keith, thank you again. Can’t wait ‘til the next one!
It was blast!
