Wedding RSVP

May I ask that the Mom's of each family RSVP for their grown children and their families. I did not mail to addresses of nieces and nephews.(Mike said this would work!)
So, could, as an example, Marcia RSVP for herself and Ric and girls and their families. The email to send to is shepardvanbennekomrsvp@yahoo.com by May 8th, please!

I hope this isn't too inconvenient...appreciate your help! Party On!

Love to all,
Marianne


PS. Yes, we did hear about Marcia! And the celebration was great fun. Thanks family.

Just Hi.....

Congratulations Aunt Marianne! I am so happy for you to have found love again. How exciting! and to Melanie with new baby Lincoln. Brian and I were unable to attend the memorial celebration, so I missed seeing him there. I hope it was a great time for everyone. Did you guys here about my mom getting pulled over that night?! Hopefully she can laugh at it now, since I'm gossiping! I might be in trouble! LOL

Just thought I'd say hi since no one has posted anything since January. Nothing really new going on here. Just that I went back to work (and notice I'm at work right now!) Oh! our toilet leaked and ruined the bathroom floor, which led to removing the toilet and sink to replace the floor, which led to replacing the pedestal sink because Brian refused to put the old one back in, which led to new plumbing and after 3 wax rings we got the toilet back in......Does everyone's home projects snowball like ours? Ridiculous!

Anyway, I love you all and hope this message at least made one of you laugh! (mom)

Randy Shepard Memorial Music Celebration

The date this year is Saturday April 10th. It will again be at the Sportsman's Club, Elm Street, Newaygo. They have been very good and benevolent to us so we will use them again! There will be food, music and fellowship with family and friends. Please mark on your calendar and see you there!
