Hi Kestrel, I have cousins only on my Father’s side (8). Father’s Sister (Aunt B) encouraged at least annual contact after my parents had died and this has continued with most of the cousins since. One family live in Scotland and I regularly met with eldest on golfing trips until the restrictions imposed over the last year. One of his Sisters lives in Australia so meeting with her is very infrequent but we keep in contact via email and Facebook. Aunt B’s eldest remarried and many of us met up for her wedding, even my Brother who came over from USA, and then again celebrating her 60th in 2019 when we had a group photo of 29 of us, including all offspring. I look back on these occasions very fondly and am so glad we all still communicate. I wish you well in the future and hope you can enjoy some happy reunions as I have.
Good Morning Saturday 20th April 2024
