Just got back from a family reunion in Arizona. What a truly magnificent experience that was! I met several cousins I had never met, and saw some cousins I hadn't seen in ages. They are a great group of people - love them all! I wish that dad, Reuben, Dale and Ellen could have been there for it. They would have been so happy! The Funkhouser's may be an interesting lot (LOL), but the one thing that overpowers anything else is the sense of family. We are proud of who we are and our hertitage! I know there is not a thing I wouldn't do for any of them, and I am positive it would be recipricated. When it comes down to brass tacks, family is the only thing you have left. I am so thankful I was born into good families!! Love all of you, and it was an absolutely AWESOME experience! Anne
