3. I wish we still had those family reunions in TX. Sadly, Dad & Mom and all of our aunts and uncles are gone.

Our cousins and their children aren't interested in family history or carrying on with the family reunions. I had about 36 first cousins in my Dad's family and maybe even more than that in my Mom's family. Our reunions were something to behold and will warm my heart forever. Too bad that our cousins' kids won't have those fond memories.
