Cracker Jack Treat Bags for Everyone
We met at Murphy's Tap House in Louisville for a farewell luncheon for Marylee Zurick today. It was wonderful to be together to celebrate the gift of Sisterhood with Marylee! Sisters brought cards and remembrances to her. We enjoyed a delicious meal, as we talked and laughed and remembered. Certainly, everyone wishes her well as she begins a new "life chapter" in Austin, Texas! (And she promises to Zoom in and be with us every once in a while, too!)
In our toast to her, we mentioned that, just as every Cracker Jacks treat bag includes a prize, the "prize of our chapter" has been Marylee, with her bright, joyful personality. People in the Austin, Texas, area are in for a real "treat," because a prize is about to land on their doorsteps!
A BIG thank you to Belinda for organizing this Just Incredible farewell luncheon! It was so good to be together and send Marylee off with our love.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed this gathering so much. I attended only a few in-person chapter meetings before COVID halted them. It was particularly sweet to meet some of my sisters "live" for the first time. Thank you, Belinda, for organizing this and Marylee for being the reason for such a delightful time.

DeleteThank you Belinda for organizing this fun luncheon. I hope Marylee is able to attend our last few meetings this year, before she moves. I'm confident, and hopeful she'll be back for lots of visits! ❤️
ReplyDeleteMarylee Z. asked me to convey to you how much she appreciated this special time together. (Update: The wonderful news is that we get "bonus time with Marylee!" Her plans shifted so she expects to be with us through next spring!)
