Life is so short and as we all get older, it seems to go by faster day by day. As we change jobs, have kids, become grandparents and great-grandparents, and move houses and towns we sometimes forget about how important family is until a tragedy strikes and family comes together.

I'd like this gathering to be a joyous occasion full of life, laughter, and love. A celebration of time together and times past. After 13 years (our last family reunion was in 2011), I think it's about time to have some fun, sit around the fire, share stories, and show our love. We're praying everyone will be able to make it to Casa Colorada!

Love you all - Susan Rutherford
