Welcome!

Our next family reunion is scheduled for April 4, 2015 at the Koreshan State Park. We are looking forward to a wonderful turnout. We have lots of exciting things going on for this reunion and we can't wait to see everyone again! Since the last reunion, we have gone for our second printing of the Fernandez family book called Beside the Still Waters. The second printing of the book will be available at the reunion as well.

Did you know...

There was a cookbook written in memory of Evelyn Luettich Horne?  There are recipes from Evelyn's collection including Appetizers, Side Dishes and Casseroles, Entree's, Breads, Drinks, Desserts and Snacks, and Holiday Specialties.


The cookbook was written by her daughter, Darlene Horne Johnson.  It has many of her classic Baked Bean recipe and how to make Fried Mullet.  I own a copy of this cookbook and it is the BEST book I have ever read.


Along with the abundance of recipes there is a story of the "Life of Evelyn" complete with a family tree!  Many people contributed memoirs and there is a letter to Evelyn from Vicki Fernandez.   It is so special and I promise you will not be disappointed in the least.  


Marlene Fernandez has copies of the cookbook for sale for $12.00 (plus shipping if you need it shipped).  If you would like a copy, please email me and I will get you Marlene's telephone # so you may place your order.  It is a real treasure.

Martha and Bill Lesnett

I received a very nice email today from Martha Lesnett who was checking in to see how things were going and she informed me that she has taken on a HUGE project of writing her own book about her husband, Bill Lesnett and his days in the Navy.  I can't wait to read it when it is all finished.  Bill and Martha contributed a beautiful story about Lena Fernandez Lesnett in our Fernandez Family Book which I know you will all enjoy.

Happy Birthday Marlene!!

Today is Marlene Fernandez' birthday and hopefully she has a happy one.  I would like to thank Marlene for all she has done to keep the family records and photos together so we can all enjoy them.  It was a very time consuming process.  Now, we can all help her with the invention of the 'internet' to fill in any blanks and get back in touch with family.  Thank you Marlene for all you do for us!!
