A "Thank You" Note

It is my pleasure to congratulate & thank you on a successful & enjoyable 30 year class reunion. That day/night I received many thanks & compliments on the hard work & great turnout. I would like to extend those gestures to you. Without your help it would not have happened. I thank you all very much.
Matt & Tom...you allowed a place where classmates once again have made memories together & will be remembered for years to come. I thank you very much & I hope it wasn't left in too much of a mess (tell Daryl we are sorry if we smashed the corn).
Bill & Jane...more than kind of you to donate & prepare the hog, very appreciated & very delicious. Maybe someday I could treat you to steak dinners, beef that is, just for a change of course.
Carrie, Deanna & Lynn...thanks so much for your help in updating classmates contact information, great job. Be sure & give me "your" updates as your skills could be used in the future.
Carrie, Deanna, Lynn, Linda, Tracy, Dan, Matt, Tom, Bill & John...thanks for bringing buns, deserts, table settings, potato salad, deviled eggs, chips, condiments & games, and yes Deanna...your Jell-o shots were unexpected and a big hit. (If any of you were one of the lucky ones I pushed a bag of my beans off on, sorry, you really don't have to eat them). To all of you...a special thanks for coming to the meetings and making the 30 year reunion a reality.
I would also like to give a special thanks to Jason Musselman on his wonderful DJ service. Jason, not too many young men would give up their Saturday night & spend it with a bunch of old people. How did your Mom talk you into this anyway?
And to Darin...thank you for giving the blessing and gearing people up to enjoy the good food & good friends.
Last but not least...I would like to thank all those that were able to attend the PHS class of 1979 - 30 year class reunion. It was great to see and visit with everyone.
Thanks to all of you for making the PHS Class of 1979 "Children of the Corn" 30 year class reunion a treasured memory. Polly
