Life Story of Ruth Elizabeth Proctor-Cook Family Reunion 1997

Life Story of Ruth Elizabeth Proctor-Part Fifteen

     Once again I have taken the liberty of deviating from what I had planned.  I decided to include pictures from the first Cleo Cook Family Reunion which was held on 16 August 1997.  This was the first and last Cleo Cook Family Reunion that Max was able to attend as he was killed in October of 1997.  We had such a fun time and I thought Mother would heartily approve of adding this in here.  Hope you enjoy.

Garen gets his Grandma Lois and Joyce is going to get Max.

This shoot out is getting pretty intense.  I think Joyce won or did she?

Max walking away from it all.

Now Lynette and Joyce are having a shoot out.

Joyce wants to get everyone wet.  Here she is shooting Lois.

Now Joyce has an ally, Lois, and it looks like they are after Josh.

Jeremy, Jayson, James and Mari trying to shoot out the candles but who is Frank trying to shoot?  It is certainly not the candles.

Lois and Liz into the candy sack.

Ciara trying to get her candy all eaten first while Shannon and Theron cheer her on.

Kira chewing her candy as fast as she possibly can.  You go girl!

And now it is time for the relay.  Looks like Brian has a slight lead on Ryan.

     That was one fun day!  So glad that so many of the family could make it.  Just as a side note, Nancy went to the hospital right after the reunion and had a precious little baby boy, Tucker Myron Hancock.  Now that's what I call winning the grand prize.  I really want to thank my children for all they did to make that day a success.  You are all priceless and I love you!!!
