Remme Reunion BBQ

Remme angels helped turn the thermometer down on Thursday, June 23, because it was over 100 all week, but on Thursday it was a beautiful 90. I don't have the grand total of folks that attended but I think the group was over 150 people!


Food and fun was shared by all starting at the pancake breakfast and ending with a delicious BBQ dinner. Kids of all ages enjoyed gunny-sac races, three-legged races and water balloon toss games.

Video Interview of Grandma Dagny Hjordes Remme Hoffer

Here is a video of Grandma Dagny. We had a good friend interview her and create this wonderful video of her life. We are so lucky to have this video!!

Remme History written by Dagny Hoffer

A few years ago Grandma Dagny Hoffer gave me a copy of a document she had typed up about her parents, Pedar Carl Remme and Hjordes Charlotte Arne Remme. I recently was cleaning some albums and found the document that I stuffed in an album for "safe keeping!" I think it is safer now that it is scanned and shared.

Enjoy!

Norma Remme died this past Saturday.
She was a very kind, generous and fun loving woman.
She recently bought Erik a Jonah and the Whale book
at a church craft fair. She told me at the
Remme Christmas party, "I saw this book
and I just had to get it! I was thinking
of what child I could give it to,
and I thought of Erik!"
We will miss her beauty and sweetness and
gentle laugh. We love you Aunt Norma.
We will miss you.
We're going to ask Aunt Myrtle and Grandma Dagny
to show you around heaven till you
get the lay of the land. -- Nora and Pedar
