NEWS FROM BACKPORCH
Recent meeting in July
Mary Smith kindly hosted the event at her lovely home in Sumter, SC.
Also, in attendance were: Karen Stinson, Cora Newcomb, Alexis Reeder, Linda Slonim, Karin Welcher and two friends of Mary's, Gail Ozegovich, and Joy Derr ick-who kindly took this photo of the group.
We missed everyone who couldn't be there!
We enjoyed a table full of delicious snacks and treats, plus coffee,
soft drinks, and even a special toast with Champagne! to finally having the group back meeting together. Thanks Mary!
We shared stories of what we've each been up to, and also reminisced about two of our members, Echo Wade and Jeffrey Kaplan, who both passed away during the last year.
And we celebrated Margie Clary, who turned 90 years young July 1st! She was not able to attend this meeting [we missed seeing you Margie!], but we hope she will be at our next meeting, as well as the other folks who had to miss it.
