Ever since we arrived back in the Philippines, we planned to have a great reunion for the RM's we served with. Generally when a MP goes home to America, there are reunions for the Americans but not the Filipinos. We solved that problem. With the help of our party planner, Cindy Antonio, we began preparing 6 months in advance. This gave everyone enough time to make money to travel to Manila if possible. It was a huge hit! President Clark and I got "Third Floor" our catering service to feed them. We had the beautiful facilities with hand mics and space for everyone to gather comfortably. Some people stayed with friends or at the temple housing so they were here by 12 p.m. on the day of the reunion. It was so great to see everyone again. We met babies and spouses of our dear missionaries. Our theme was appropriate, "No Tags, Just Great Memories!"
