Here's a photo of all the Burton grandchildren taken in 1982. The reunion was held in honor of Rege and Sal Burton's 50th anniversary. The Ohio, California, New Jersey and Pennsylvania families all came together. The only ones missing from the photo are my cousins Jeff Burton and Patty Bakey, and my elder sister Eva.

Clockwise from lower left: Billy Bakey, Kim Burton, Donna Bakey, Sue Bakey, Brett Burton, Julie Burton, Clint Burton, Billy Burton, Karen Burton, Eric Burton, Lori Burton, Nicole Bakey and Rhonda Bakey.

The next time we all got together like this was when Sal passed away in 1995. I prefer to remember us back when life seemed simpler and all we wanted to do was have a good time. If my memory serves, we had quite a blast in '82.
