September 2020 – Hickson Family Update

Happy September family!

I pray that you are all doing well and staying safe. I can’t believe that the summer is almost over. Time for back to school and all that it brings during a pandemic.

I thought that I would do something different this month with the headline picture. I want to put the picture of a family member who’s birthday is that month at the top. Starting off this month with Chantelle, who was taken from us too soon. I still have a hard time believing that she is gone.

Pictures! Pictures! Pictures!

Thank you all for sharing your family pictures on the site, it is great to see the pictures and videos grow. Please make sure that you label who is in the pictures when you post them. It makes it a lot easier on family members who don’t know everyone to put a name with the face! If you don’t have the link, contact me and I will send it to you. I don’t want to post the link here just yet.

Family Get Together #4

Just a reminder family that we are going to have our 4th online get together in 2 weeks! I asked in the last update if people preferred a different day and/or time so that we could get more participation. I only heard from a few people and most wanted to keep it Sunday afternoon but there was some interest in moving it. I am open to either. If you didn’t have a chance to to vote, please click here (ICYMI: Hickson Family Update #3) and register your vote. Please do so by Thursday, September 10th. During the next get together I would like to take a little time to go over some of the family history and to hear from all of you. Let’s learn more information about the family and hear some stories! Come join us and call 2-3 family members and have them join as well.

One last thing

If you have not reviewed the email that I sent on July 20th asking you to verify/update the family information that I have for you, I would ask that you go back and verify that all of the info that I have for you is correct.

That’s all I have for now family. Please be safe, wear a mask and practice social distancing!
