A Pioneer Family Reunion In East Montgomery County


A Pioneer Family Reunion
In East Montgomery County
2009




We share not only a part of history-

But old neighbors, family, and a way of life that used to be, and continues to be.

.

We went to school together and played hard in the old fashioned way-

We listened to each other and what all of our parents had to say.

.

We went to church every single Sunday-

And then got together on every special holiday that came our way.

.

We buried our loved ones as we all felt a community loss-

We strived to take care of our families at whatever cost.

.

We are all linked together for we are the pioneers and/or descendants

of the pioneers of East Montgomery County.

.

We married and all had children and grandchildren and even great or

great-great grandchildren of our very own-

We’ve all stayed close even as our community has grown.

.

And so here we are once again-
Gathering to eat, enjoy, and discuss with those that we share
so much, the days of way back when.
