From the Archives - Okun-Samson Family Reunion August, 1998, Doubletree, Skokie, Illinois

I found this old copy of the Okun-Samson Family Reunion dated August, 1998. I scanned it in as best I could. This posting is in memory of those we've lost, and in honor of those new family members that have been born since this photo was taken.

Please share this with everyone, and please email me back so I can post your comments.....it would be great if you recognize yourself and tell us what you've been up to since that date in August of 1998.

In light of Facebook, MySpace, and Twitter.....this would be a great time to communicate with each other to keep our family roots and branches alive for future generations.

Feel free to email me at frankokun@gmail.com.

What do YOU do for a living?

We have a big family.....remember the photographer saying "Come on everyone, get a bit closer together!"? Well, times have changed and our family surely has gotten larger. Sad to say, most of us don't know each other that well. I remember Uncle Ruby, at our last Okun-Samson Family Reunion...."Let's keep this going. Let's have more family reunions in the future."

When I established this blog in September of 2006, my goal was to have a place for us all to gather, even though it is virtual space. I'm delivering the message again to all the Okun and Samson relatives.

So please, send me your pictures....or at least the links to your photo sharing sites (flickr, etc.).so that I can direct others to view their cousins, aunts, uncles, and even other Okun and Samson families. There's a missing link in the chain...are you part of it?

Send all inquiries to FrankOkun@gmail.com....and let everyone in YOUR family know about this blog!!

Now, to the matter at hand....What do YOU do for a living?

Frank Okun - Internet Marketing Specialist with Nevada Website Design, as well as Director of Marketing Solutions for Clicks-Online.com.

Frank's wife, Cheryl Drucker, is currently recruiting to find potential or experienced Loan Officers.....

So now that you have the example, let us know what it is YOU do for a living!
