NIXON FAMILY REUNION 2014
“Continuing the love as we grow!”
Nixon Family Reunion Host
8525 Plum Street
New Orleans, LA 70118
Dear NIXON Family
As we anticipate our next family reunion, of which I am delighted to be your 2014 host for, will be held
in New Orleans, Louisiana. I look forward to this wonderful and grand task. As one of the older members
of the family, I am honored to say the 2014 family theme will be “Continuing the love as we grow”. The
Nixon family is a strong family, and without our youth, our family lines go in silence and dies. The Nixon
Family Reunion will be held July 31 thru August 3, 2014 and the family colors will be old gold and black.
When you come to New Orleans Louisiana, which is the capital of the WHO DATS Nation, you will
meet me, Mary Nixon Johnson, daughter of John F. Nixon. There will be a lot planned for us all great
effort has been made to be sure that we all have an enjoyable time.
Knowing the Nixon Family Reunion does not operate with a family budget! The Host Person/Family is
responsible for all deposits and any cost related to the Family Reunion activities. I would like to strongly
encourage each family member to “PLEASE!!!” try and get your family dues in on time so that all family
activities may go as planned and smoothly. I want this family gathering to be one you will remember.
I would like to also encourage you as soon as possible to please complete and return your Family
Registration Form, RSVP card and Family Group Record Form (please complete to the best of your knowledge, if
additional Family Group Record Form is needed please make a copy and pass the form to another family member.) If you
will not be attending please be so kind and complete the form, just state you will not be attending, we
would still love to include you/your family in the reunion and send you a family reunion souvenir.
If you will be attending the reunion, Please! Please! send your family reunion dues in no later than the
installment due dates. Please see the family reunion registration form for the family fees and installment
payment plan.

2014 Family Reunion North Carolina Bus Ride to New Orleans Form
Dear NIXON Family
As we prepare for our next family reunion, it has been brought to our attention, which makes practical
sense, that the possibility of chartering a bus could be in order. Since a great majority of family resides in
North Carolina, it may be more economical and efficient to secure this mode of transportation.
If this is something that interests you, please contact Cheryl Garland at 818-581-6222 (mobile) for more
details.
Sincerely,
Cheryl Garland

2014 Family Young Achiever
Dear NIXON Family,
In keeping with the fact that education is a key in opening opportunities, I would like to
acknowledge and reward hard work by those younger members of our family whose efforts are often
overlooked.
Because it takes a village to raise a child, our support and recognition of their accomplishments is
essential for development. Please send a copy of report cards as well as progress report for the school year
of 2013 and 2014 no later than a month after the school year is over.
If you have any questions or concerns please contact me at 678-509-5881 or by email at
[email protected] or [email protected] . When contacting by email please
place in the subject line: Nixon Family Young Achievers.
You may also send it to me to the address below:

Sincerely
Treena Anderson-Slaton
