1993 Reunion
1994 Reunion
Visiting Salem, Oregon offered reunion go-ers an opportunity to visit Mt. St. Helen’s, site of a volcanic eruption in 1980, and beautiful Crater Lake.
1995 Reunion
Gordon provided different and interesting touches during the Saturday evening meal: a magician entertained each table, and beautiful yellow and white balloons festooned the wall in back of the head table. At the end of the night, Gordon said he had heard that one of the balloons contained $100...so the children popped every one!

Old Saybrook, CT, August, 1996
Virgil and Evelyn
Are true inspiration
The heart and soul
Keeping HNA whole
You may not realize
In their quiet guise
How much they do, how much it means,
Their work behind the scenes
Mailing the cards, the bulletins, and booklets,
Scouting and scavenging for Huntley news snippets,
Collecting dues, writing up minutes and letters
Endless research to share heritage better
Seeking connections, the proofs and the hooks
For posterity, getting it published in books:
We know who we are, and how far we've come
We even know who we got our nose from
Virgil and Evelyn would thank many others:
Our brothers, sisters, fathers, and mothers;
They'd tell us it's teamwork, we're not to fuss!
It takes a village, yes, all of us
Still, at this Golden Reunion, 1996
Thank you, Virgil and Evelyn, for the gifts
The gifts you give: Time present, Time past
May our deep appreciation last
For treasures you are
Beyond measure, by far
Heart and Soul,
Keeping HNA whole
