Why Have a Family Reunion?

May 18, 2017 - Family is important. It is great to get together other than at funerals. It brings together family members who have not seen one another for some time or meet those who have never seen each other. New relationships can develop or old ones can be renewed. There can be a lot of catching up to do. Sure, today there is social-media available that is being used by family members to stay in touch but everyone in the family is not tech savvy and some don’t want to be, so face to face is still popular.
