Georgia Tech BSU Alumni group at the Petty's
October 20, 2018
| Norman and Barbara Petty hosted our October gathering of the Ga Tech BSU alumni group in conjunction with their celebration of their 50th Wedding Anniversary. We brought along wedding pictures and had a good time looking at the collection of photos when we were all young folks.
As usual, we jumped right into conversations and the house was buzzing with all those joyful chats. Norman and Barbara provided a nice lunch to go along with our fellowship.
Previously this year we had a big gathering in Toccoa in March and an earlier local gathering hosted by Leland and Jane Strange in January.

 | Our gathering was scheduled for noon, and as soon as anyone walked in the door they got into a conversation. Don and Betty Hammonds, Leland Strange and Nancy Bonds. |
| Brenda Nave, Barbara Petty and Charles Griffin. We had seen Charles yesterday at the GBCN Alumni Day where had honored the memory of Merle. |  |
 | Becky and Laddie Rollins arrive from north Georgia. |
| Laddie, Leland, Frank Gudger and Sam Shelton. |  |
 | Leland prys Rod out from the back of the camera for a shot with Laddie, Frank and Sam. |
| Lunchtime brings Don, Laddie, Leland and Frank. Barbara had prepared a lovely lunch with the help of daughter Beth. We enjoyed getting to know Beth. |  |
 | Frank and Babs Gudger, Nancy Bonds visit in the lunch line. |

Gathered at the 50th Anniversary Celebration table are Nancy Bonds, Becky Rollins, Babs Gudger, Frank Gudger, Don Hammonds, Laddie Rollins, Leland Strange.
I had to circle around to the other end of the table to get Sam Shelton in the group.
Dining at the other table were Charles Griffin, Betty Hammonds, Brenda Nave and Norman Petty.
 | Now going back to the celebration of the 50th Anniversary celebration with which we started at the top. Barbara collects us all at the big table with the cake. |
| This larger gathering included two of the grandsons, who were definitely interested in the cake. |  |
 | It was a great privilege to be able to celebrate with Norman and Barbara on this great occasion. |
| Nancy, Brenda and Babs have a little more time for conversation before we part company. Having gathered in this loving fellowship for about 60 years, we always look forward to the next time! |  |
