Indiana Thanksgiving Gathering & Anita (Sweitzer) Martin Memorial November 2018

On Thanksgiving Day 2018, as has become the "tradition";we gathered at the home of Beth & Jim Sweitzer-Riley, near North Manchester, Indiana. Eikenberry cousins from North Manchester (Jeannie Eikenberry & Jeff ; Arlene and Cliff Kindy) were joined this year by Beth's friends Michele Graham & Peggy Boggs. On Friday, November 23rd we gathered at Madres Restaurant for the Memorial of Anita (Sweitzer) Martin who died unexpectedly on October 11th. Beth had organized the Memorial, Michele prepared the banquet room displays and lighting. Connie & Sharon Sweitzer along with cousin Jeanine attended the memorial luncheon. Here are images from the two day gathering plus a photo of Barbara Lahman-Hogle and Gary Hogle whom we visited in their new Ft. Wayne home the day before Thanksgiving. Photography also contributed by Glenn Sweitzer and Beth's friend Michele Graham of Michele Marie Photography.
