Why Reunions Are Important to Family

For me these are great times to reconnect with immediate and extended family.  The opportunity to honor our elderly living relatives and seek their history.  It creates tradition that our younger generation can learn how to continue it.  Think of all the family members we see in old reunion photos, who are now deceased.  Recall the laughter and joy they brought.  It is a time to also heal "old wounds"  and forgive each other as life is too short.  The relatives in the picture are all deceased, and were of a different generation.  We can only think of how proud they are to know we continue to have Family Reunions
