From Marilyn:

I've been married to Jimmie Percy for 36 years. He is an attorney with the Jones Walker firm here in Baton Rouge. I have 4 children, Brian (47), Lauren (45), Erin (35) and Allison (33). Brian is the basketball coach at Central High School, and he and his wife Kellie have an 8 year old daughter named Adaire. They live next door to me!; Lauren is married to Jamie Smith and she is a stay at home Mom. They have a 7 year old daughter named REILY and they live in Prairieville; Erin is a partner at a law firm and lives in New Orleans; and the baby Allison is married to Stephen Merrick. Allison was a third grade teacher at a little catholic school in Houston but "retired" after their first child Brennan was born. We recently bought a camp on Moss Lake in Sulphur so that we can see Allson and her family more often. We have named it the Halfway House! I am a full time MaeMae - what did I ever do before grandchildren?????

I've been happily planning our 50th Reunion for over a year now. This Covid-19 virus is wreaking havoc with our plans. Here we are, all trying to look our best for the Reunion, and now we'll be an extra year older! Bummer. But I am confident that social distancing will be a thing of the past by then, so be prepared - I plan to hug each and every one of you and kiss you on the mouth!! See you all April 10, 2021 !!!!!!
