Tom Tully Family

Hello all. I'm just getting on line at Pete's invitation to keep you all up to date on the Tom Tully clan--yes, I think it's big enough now to call it a clan all on its own. This will probably come as several smaller entries rather than one big one now that I've gotten this far.

All the family members are well and scattered all over the US and Lima, Peru (Anne and Spencer). Grandchildren are growing up, heading off to college, high school, middle school, grade school and there are also two little guys not quite ready for academia. Some of the children are also starting & continuing college or getting further education.

Tom is well and though retired is keeping busy as an interpreter for those who have difficulty understanding all the legalese in the courts. He's also become quite active in the American Legion.

I'm looking for a job--there's just too many others looking and too few jobs opening up here in Eugene. It's been great reading the various entries and trying to catch up with the family. Enjoyed Jane and Larry's visit to Oregon and their too short time with us. --Jan

Family Reunion

Hi everyone,
I really enjoyed the Fennell family reunion this year. It seemed as though there was time for everyone to visit. As usual, Jerry did a great job of obtaining a place for us to have it and was very good at keeping the business meeting going and on tract. Many kudos to all those who brought the wonderful food. I know that I must have gained a pound or so. It is always good to see all the cousins and even better that we had time to visit. Until the next time.
Pete

Family news

It has been quite a while since I have added anything to the site, so here goes. Chris is now the proud owner of a condominium in Peoria. Pat's oldest granddaughter, Brigette, was married this past Saturday to a wonderful man, Brandon. It was a beautiful wedding. Amy and two of her children flew in from Ireland for the wedding, so the whole Campbell family was there. We all had a marvelous visit. I can't believe how the grandchildren are growing up so fast. Cathy Tully Anderson is planning on flying back for the family reunion, that will make 2 years in a row that she will be here. It is also hard to believe that Pat and JoAnn celebrated their 50th year graduation from high school this year. We are all getting older. To all my first cousins, please add to the blog site so we know how all are doing. Latest word from Aunt Doris is that she is getting along just fine. I will be posting more photos in the future so that all can see them.
Love to all,
Pete

Easter

May all my cousins have a blessed and happy Easter. My family will be here to celebrate Easter-traditional dinner and egg hunt. Even though they are all close by, we don't get together often enough to suit me. Aunt Doris is doing well, home, a little tired, but sounding like her normal self. God Bless everyone. Love to all, Pete

Glad to hear you are on the mend. You are in our prayers!  Kate and Raul Grimes

Aunt Doris

Hi to all,

Mom came home from the hospital on Saturday and is feeling good. She was so happy to be able to sleep in her own bed last night. She needs to take things easy but says she is okay with that. Thank you for all your prayers and concern.
