A note from our hosts, Ray and Margaret Roach:

Place: Holiday Inn Express, Starkville, MS
Room Rate: $65.00 (Suite $85.00)

Another year has passed and we are making plans for the reunion here again. Do trust every one stays well and we will have a good reunion this year. We are getting excited at having you back in Starkville. We missed some of you last year, but do trust you can be with us this year. Each year it gets more dificut to make the reunions. We all know there is coming a time when we will not be able to meet. Until then we will do our best.

Thanks to the family members who come along and help us old folks. We do welcome you and trust you enjoy the reunions. Maybe, just maybe, we will not bore you to death. We appreciate you so very much.

Again this year we feel that $5.00 per person will be plenty to cover the cost of food and other expenses. We will not have a banquet this year. You did an excellent job in getting in your reservations last year. It helps the motel as well as letting us know where we stand. If you come a day or so early be sure and let them know at the desk that you are to get the same rate as Friday and Saturday nights.

Please let us know if we can help in any way.

Raymond and Margaret Roach
