Afterwards, there was a program with each Weech family member and their families participating. I never knew there was so much talent amongst the Weechs!
Our family did a "rap". Who knew that we were so very talented!
"The BJ Weech family is here to say,
We are glad to be here with you today!
We have a great heritage, that we are proud of.
Yes, we have been blessed from up above!
From a family of seven we are starting to grow.
We've now grown to 43 and are expecting some mo'
We've gathered many lessons along the way
We learned them while we worked and played.
We learned to be patriotic and salute the flag -
Our Dad was a marine, tho he didn't like to brag!
We learned to love the mountain, way up high
Chopping and hauling wood for the fire to keep us dry.
We learned to work hard, using our mighty power
Dad said: "Let's dig this trench, and I'll be back in an hour!"
Doing for others was Dad's unwritten motto
We often joined in to help, cause we thought we otta.
Serving in the Church wherever there's a need
Is the example we saw and we've tried to heed.
Each of of you too, has helped us grow
Thanks to your examples that you've been willing to show.
We love being part of this big Weech clan
We love rubbing shoulders with you, whenever we can!"
And then, the "younger" set of siblings shared a piece of history that is disputed to this day. Somthing about service with a smile and dancing on the table?
We ended the night listening to the history of the Weech's with great crowd participation:
"Sugar and spice and everything nice"
"God bless America"
And everyone's favorite - "Pima! That's MY hometown!"
And a song to remember, sung by the family ended a wonderful evening!
