Greetings to the entire DeRose Family, extended family and various friends. Welcome to our 2008 reunion website. (courtesy of Eddie A. Jr. You may know him as 'Eddie B., III or little Ed who is taller than everyone else.Thank you very much Neph!!!)
Our first family reunion was in San Diego in 2007 and wow, did we ever have a great time. We laughed for 4 days. It was always something or someone. Pete & Alicia - thank you for hosting the event at your house. Everything was perfect. I was there for 8 hours and it flew by just like that. (snap)
I'll just quote cuz Sandi. 'Any three of us could meet at park bench and have a good time'. Which, of course, is true. It doesn't really matter when or where, only that we get together and let it happen.
Since we were a bit out of touch, the theme in San Diego was 'What's up, Cuz'. What's your name again? Otherwise described as, If three of us met on the street, I'm not sure I could pick you out of the other two.)
This year the reunion moves to home base, Beaver Falls / Pittsburgh. We have put in our reservation for the dinner cruise, but we can add a few people.
Please RSVP for the reunion on Saturday, even if you can not make it. It will help with the food, drinks, tables & chairs. And it helps my mother's sanity, my sanity and the number of times I have to answer the question: How many people are coming? THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I can not tell you thank you enough if you RSVP.
I'm looking forward to Reunion #2.

To Be Determined Thank you cuz Dave for the 2007 reunion t-shirts. Great Idea. Let’s do it again. We are ordering polo shirts for the 2008 reunion.

If you have not RSVP’d for the 'Clippin, reunion or post-reunion, you are not on the reunion shirt list. The 2008 shirt is a classic.
Place your order now or by July 16th.
Cost: $15

Believe it or not, there were less than 100 errors in there. : )
I've corrected many of them, however I'm certain there are more. Since I had a limited selection, there were a few beautiful pictures too. Maybe I didn't capture your best side. If you have a better image, please send it to me. To update your information - call Sue (303) 210-2565 or email [email protected].
