Southwest Family—

Thank you, thank you, thank you! It truly took a village to create the wonderful celebration atmosphere we all enjoyed! Whether you are someone who:

• helped with the history of 50 years,
• or addressed invitations,
• or searched through photographs to share
• or if you helped tassel the bookmarks
• or put together chandeliers
• or if you helped set up and decorate the gym
• or helped create centerpieces
• or if you brought a dessert
• or provided the photo opportunity balloon arch
• or if you greeted our guests
• or helped serve drinks or desserts
• or if you served on one of the food lines that moved like well-oiled machines
• or stirred pasta, beans or coleslaw until you didn’t want to eat any
• or if you’re one of those that kept the garbage cans emptied
• or helped our family find a place to sit
• or if you’re one of those that helped with clean-up after the Celebration
• or if you were one of those on hand to be at my beck and call--

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! 

And if you’re Nick Carter, - meat smoker extraordinaire: A huge, HUGE thank you to you and your sidekick Ken Starnes. 

A big thanks to Adam, Ken, Jimmy and Lane for the content of worship and the celebration!

A video montage is being created and will be available soon!
