61st Lindskoog Family Reunion Minutes-2010

Thank you to all of you who attended yet another fun family reunion at the Heron Creek Park Reserve outside of Chicago. The Lindskoogs certainly know how to put on a great party. It was a true joy to take a moment and watch the interactions of all of the attendees. We are fortunate to have a happy family and one that gets joy from seeing one another after a long time has passed. This year’s reunion was hosted by Art Lindskoog’s family: Marlene and Harry Goodman, Marla and Gary Guziec, Larry Goodman and Karen Greene, Lance Goodman and Andrea Newman, Jim and Ottis Lindskoog, Matthew and Jennifer Lindskoog, and Amy Fuhrer. It takes a village, right? The food was delicious and the menu included the following: smoked salmon, pickled herring, cheese and crackers were served as appetizers; Italian beef, bratwursts, hotdogs, pasta salad, German potato salad, baked beans, fruit salad and chips continued the main course. Dessert included Marlene’s famous chocolate and vanilla sheet cakes. Beer was donated by the Guziecs. The cost of the reunion was $10 per adult. Children ages 13 and under were free.

The annual family meeting was conducted by Jim Lindskoog. It began with the reading of the 60th year minutes, which were approved. Then it was on to business to find out the happenings over the past year.

People made the trek from all around the country to help share in celebration of family. We had travelers from Illinois, Wisconsin, Indiana, Georgia, Arizona, Missouri, and New Mexico.  The Wiggermans won the award for longest distance travelled coming all the way from Mesa, Arizona. Those in attendance varied in ages across the lifespan proving that the Lindskoogs enjoy spending time together regardless of age. Our youngest member award went to Megan Murray (daughter of Vince and Julie Murray) who was a mere five weeks old. Our eldest and most experienced member of the family was our cherished Eva Miller who recently turned a youthful 99 years. Amazingly, Eva has attended every Lindskoog Family Reunion. There are currently five generations of Lindskoogs living healthy and happy lives.

In addition to Megan’s birth, there were other joyous additions to the Lindskoog clan that occurred this year:
Nathan Kaminski (Kevin and Brittany Kaminski): 7/25/09
Bree Brown (Shane and Rachel Brown): 8/21/09
Finnley Marie Richards (Ryan and Jen Richards): 9/6/09
Grace Kellen Miller (Bob and Julie Miller): 9/26/09
Judson Wayne Brown (Heath and Lane Brown): 11/19/09
Megan Elizabeth Murray (Julie and Vince Murray); 5/20/10
Penya Violet Richards (Leif and Tarina Richards): 5/20/10

In addition to births, we also celebrated the marriages of Karl and Jaime Greenfield.

All joined in a moment of silence and prayer to remember those family members we had lost this past year. Jim Beckland, who passed away on 12/9/09, was remembered fondly by his wife Carol. She shared a special story of the scattering of his ashes on Rolling Stone Lake. Bob Lindeman, who passed away on 10/5/10, was also remembered by his family. They included his wife, Dawn, their children Lane & Gunnar, and his in-laws Marilyn and Ron Wiggerman.

Following the annual meeting, many of the family participated in our traditional egg and balloon tosses. (It made for a smelly drive home for some with egg yolk on their clothes!) The children also had a delightful time doing relay races, ring toss games, playing with bubbles and more.

We look forward to the 2011 reunion, which will be hosted by Erik Lindskoog’s family. We will eagerly await what news has occurred between now and then.
