Over July 4th week I met with my family up in Minnesota for a family reunion. My Grandma Ann was present for both Perko and Pershern gatherings ( she is the eldest at 92-- she still drives all her "old friends" around and works at the hospital a couple days a week) My Grandpa was the first of of 10 kids while my Grandma was the first of 6. So as you can imagine how big the gatherings were with 5 generations there. I really enjoyed spending time with my cousins as we visited the mines. We live on opposites sides of the US so really don't know each other. I'm hoping that will change. There were so many stories to be heard, some about my Grandpa, very colorful. Its great to learn about your family. I had started a family tree years ago and was able to add a little to it --hey family forward your part of the tree please!
