FAMILY REUNION 2010

In the event you have not received your Family Reunion information, the following is here for back-up. The following letter is from Leticia Forrest, our Family Reunion Chairperson:

FAMILY REUNION 2010

It's that time of the year again when we are in the planning process for the 2010 Family Reunion. It is time for all of you to stand up and be counted by your voice. I am requesting at least one family member from each branch of the family to serve on the reunion committees this year. I am also requesting at least one young adult ages 16-27 to serve on each committee.

We will have our 1st Family Reunion Meeting, Saturday, January 16, 2010 at 2pm in Huntsville, AL. Please contact me if you would like to be on one of the committees by January 9, 2010. For those family members outside of Huntsville who wish to take part in the first meeting please let me know by January 9th so we can set up a conference call.

Enclosed is a list of the committees and a reunion survey. Please return the survey form to me by January 9, 2010. This will inform us of any changes to be made and/or stay the same.

Thank you. Your family reunion Chairperson, Leticia Forrest, 3103 Dove Rd., Huntsville, AL 35802; 202-391-6066 phone, 256-715-1938 fax, plazeaustin@aol.com email.

Sad News from Chattanooga

Our condolences to Francis and Lorene Steger on the death of Lorene's brother, James Labron Johnson. His Homegoing Service will be at 12 Noon on Saturday, January 9, 2010, at Taylor Funeral Home. Pastor Earnest Tanner will officiate. The Wake will be Friday Night at 7:00 p.m.

Latest Creations

Did you know that James (Tom) makes hand-made dolls? Here are a couple of pictures of his latest creations. Note the fine details (he sculpts their eyes, noses, mouths, fingers, toes, arms, elbows, knees, and bellybuttons). He also sculpts their behinds and adds every strand of hair on their heads. He really gets detailed as he creates. He even makes his own patterns.

Some of the dolls are undressed because I need to take them shopping for clothing... that's my only contribution.

Check Out Our Cousins!!!

We have some very talented family members in the midst. a few months ago we learned that Allen Standifer has his own business (Ardyss). If you haven't checked out his website, here is the web address: http://ardyss.com/).

James Bone, another family member, has started his own company which specializes in consulting to financial services firms on compliance and risk management. Please visit his website for a more detailed overview: https://globalcomplianceassociates.com/.

James has also started a second website that is focused on diversity in financial services: http://www.naspboston.com/. He is President of this non-profit national firm which is dedicated to promoting diversity in financial services and providing opportunities for growth in this field. Maynard Jackson (former Mayor of City of Atlanta) started this non-profit years ago and James is responsible for the Boston chapter.

Happy Birthday Tom (James)

Birthday wishes to you on this day and all the days to follow.
