Twelve out of 23 living cousins gathered on short notice in the rural city where our grandparents spent their entire 60 years of married life. In the 31 years since their passing, their children & grandchildren have gathered somewhere in this state as closely as possible to the anniversary of their wedding. Never on a schedule, just whenever anyone can be bothered to do a flashmob-style thing.
Two of the 25 cousins have passed on, one in the early 1970s from Hepatitis A and another (same family!) of a drug overdose in 1996.
A great time was had by all, much beer & fine food & wine consumed in the same hotel our grandparents dined at every Friday night.
