Eli has some "BIG" news to share...

Jaw Surgery

Aunt Gina and Melanie,

I was wondering if you could tell me about your jaw surgeries that you had a few years ago. I found out that I have the option to get it done too. Could you possibly tell me about your experiences (pros and cons)and if you think it's a good idea for me to get it done?
Any info/advice you have, would be very helpful....Thanks so much! :-)

I hope everything is going well with you both!
Love
Andrea

Thank you family for all your support

The kids and I would like to thank everyone who came to the Music Celebration, remembering Randy. I had a great time and I hope that all of you did too. Through the generosity of family and friends, we raised twice as much money this year as we did last year with funds to be given to Tri County Band Boosters and Gilda’s Club Grand Rapids.
Thanks to family who worked the tables, entertained us and helped in many ways. Thanks to Al and Gina, Brynn and Matt, Randy and Cindy for helping us to plan and execute flawlessly a wonderful evening.

Love to all,
Marianne
