Hey Norm AND Tony. I'm sorry to say that Lana and myself aren't going to be able to make the reunion this time. I talked with Mike Hansen earlier and told him also. I have two granddaughters graduating when the reunion will be taking place. If it had snowed a few more days or icy roads it would have worked out. Tony I will see you the next one for sure. Also Norm sounds like you have a busy spring and summer. It would be great to see all of you. Lets hope for the next one
