There were 18 cousins born into 5 families, descendents of Robert and Emily Schrieber of La Crosse, Wisconsin. I grew up next door to Grandma and Grandpa and had the benefit of seeing all of the cousins as they visited my grandparents and parents. Now, we are mostly scattered and few keep in touch. My mother Ruth was the great communicator. She knew everyone's birthday and sent cards religiously. At her funeral last September the oldest cousin Tom proposed getting together and he would organize it. He created a Facebook page and reserved a shelter and made it happen on June 21 outside Minneapolis.
This is the group who attended.
More photos to come.
