It Was Reunion Time Again
Sunday, June 5th, 2011Celebrating A Life
Thursday, March 31st, 2011This past Saturday I returned to a small town west of here where I spent quite a bit of time growing up. It was a birthday celebration for one of my cousins…Her 80th to be exact. And it was being held in the Orchard Community Center. The Community Center was once part of the Orchard School complex, so it had plenty of provenance within my family. Both sides of my family moved through Orchard.
Margaret, the cousin we were celebrating, grew up here and graduated from this very school. She was the daughter of one of my dad’s older brothers. She grew up on the corner next to my mother’s family. Both houses are no longer where they once were, though at least one of them still stands.
Margaret was a teacher, a mother, a wife…Her friends turned out to celebrate with her…Family, friends, colleges and students, the large room was filled with well wishers.
Happy Birthday Sissy…I hope the next one is as happy.

Geneva and Roy at the 2006 Boyd Family Reunion
My cousin Geneva passed away yesterday, Thursday, August 19, 2010 after a long battle with illness. Our thoughts and prayers go out to Cheryl and Raynold as they make their arrangements.
I think my most vivid memories shall always be of her smiling face as we gathered at the many family occasions over the years. At our many reunions and at the funerals where we gathered to say our good byes to the loved once we would miss, Geneva always had a smile for those of us who could be there and a kind word to send back to those who couldn’t. Thinking back…I do not recall a time when she did not have a smile on her face when we were all together.
Geneva will be missed…
As details of the funeral become available I will post them here…
Memorial Service will be held on Sunday, August 29 at 2:00pm at:
Triska Funeral Home 612 Merchant Street El Campo, TX 77437 Phone Number: (979) 543-3681Cousin Contact
Friday, October 23rd, 2009I have heard from cousins on a couple of my lines recently.
Over the past month I have heard from relatives of my mothers grandmother, Della Blair Medford. This Blair line had been mostly unknown until I heard from two different cousins with their own lines. One is sharing photos which I will be posting over the coming days to the database at Boyd-Family.net.
Today brought this photo to my Facebook page…
Along with the photo came this note:
Hi Gary, My daddy Larry Jack Boyd, and Aunt Betty Jo Boyd “Deanhart” or not in this picture they where both at work.
