January 2005 News
Dear BSU Friends,
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU FOR THE MANY LOVELY AND APPRECIATED CHRISTMAS CARDS. YOU ARE A WONDERFUL GROUP WITH WHOM TO WORK. I TRUST YOU LOOKED AT THE NEW WEB SITE. IT WAS FINISHED IN MID DECEMBER IN TIME FOR YOU TO FIND THOSE MAILING ADDRESSES AND PHONE NUMBERS YOU NEEDED FOR YOUR CHRISTMAS CARD MAILINGS. YOU FOUND THOSE UNDER DIRECTORY--DIDN'T YOU??. NOW BE HONEST DID YOU LOOK AT EVERY THING ON THE WEB SITE? DID YOU FIND THOSE MAIDEN NAMES YOU WANTED SO BAD AT THE REUNION? WELL 113 ARE LISTED UNDER MAIDEN NAMES FOR YOUR INFORMATION AND OVER 105 TELEPHONE NUMBERS ARE LISTED UNDER THE ADDRESS. WHAT MORE COULD YOU NEED?? AND, OVER 50 CHRISTMAS LETTERS WERE SENT TO THE HALL BROTHERS. THEY WERE OVERWHELMED. YOU DID GREAT!! I THANK YOU SO MUCH .
SINCE THE WEB SITE WAS POSTED I HAVE ADDED A 1997 REUNION PICTURE. IT WAS TAKEN IN COLLINSVILLE IN SEPTEMBER OF THAT YEAR. THE NAMES ARE LISTED AS WELL OUR THEME THAT YEAR WAS ANTIQUES--REMEMBER THE QUILTS.!! AND ,TOO, I HAVE ADDED TWO NEW PICTURES TO THE GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY PAGE--BELLINGERS AND TOLERS-- BOTH PHYLLIS AND PATTY LOOK OLDER--I WONDER WHY. I ALSO CORRECTED THE FEW MISTAKES I HAD MADE. ROSIE ROBINSON IS NUMBER 73 -NOT 70- IN THE LARGE GROUP PICTURE ON THE STEPS OF THE OBF. I STILL DO NOT KNOW WHO 70 IS--DO YOU KNOW? PLEASE LET ME KNOW. NOW, OTHER CORRECTIONS WERE MADE AS THEY WERE REPORTED TO ME.
I PLAN TO POST MY 2005 GOAL LIST. I WORK BEST WITH GOALS AND TRY HARD TO MAINTAIN THEM. I AM ALREADY MAKING PLANS FOR THE 13TH ANNUAL REUNION IN COLLINSVILLE--MEADOW HEIGHTS BAPTIST CHURCH SEPT. 29-30.
WELL THAT IS ALL FOR JANUARY NEWS PAGE. LET ME HEAR FROM YOU IF I CAN BE OF SERVICE. THAT (REVISED) WEB SITE IS WWW.BSU-SIU.COM. SEE YOU THERE.
YOUR FRIEND AND PRESIDENT HELEN GREEN GALLOWAY.
