I Decided to CHILL on This Saturday Night -- My Next Piece will be Largely about My FIRST COUSIN George Meyer and His "Common-Law-Wife", Susan Grant -- and I JUST DISCOVERED I Owe THEM Several Apologies, so Here is a Small Introduction, and I'll Write before the SUPER BOWL:

 

George Meyer and Susan Grant at our last Meyer Family Reunion -- summer of 2009, at Greg & Marybeth (Meyer) Lernahan's Lake House in Central Indiana.

The whole crew who attended. Greg Lernihan (in black shirt on the end), took the photo and had to photoshop Susan Grant (in black at the other end), in -- as well as Janet "Jan" (Meyer) Opperman, and later Larsen (on crutches -- they were at the doctor's as Jan broke her leg waterskiing).

Of my late Grandparent's -- Henry John Meyer and Gertrude (Hesselbrock) Meyer's descendants -- ONLY Jan's two children, Ian and Andrea Opperman, did NOT attend as they have a Jewish Dad and the Meyers are tied to Nazism.
