Metairie Ridge Garden Club attending 2022 JPCGC Christmas Tea
The Christmas Tea was an enjoyable fellowship. Along with lots of delicious food, all members brought a special ornament obtained from throughout the years to present along with a warm-hearted sentiment that they told. Some made you cry and others made you laugh! One was a little drummer boy magnet that one person remembered their son would put on the refrigerator before they decorated the tree, few dated back to a hundred years, some were ornaments with a sentiment in memory of a loved one, while others honored a spouse. Pictured back row are: Betty Murray, Debbie Corales, Sharon Rojas-President, Jaynell Zimmerman, Daria Vincent, and Stella Bowman. Sitting left to right are: Jackie Ciuffi and Charmaine Kathman.
