MISHOE, GARDNER, MOORE & RAWLS FAMILY

 

THE MGMR FAMILY REUNIONS


The first reunion of the Mishoe, Gardner, Moore & Rawls, came into being during the summer of 1984.  Mrs. Joan Mishoe Giles made the suggestion, and she and the late Dr. Luna I. Mishoe started our family tradition.  We are all very thankful for their vision and sense of family.  Let's continue to pray for our family and ensure our future generations keep the torch burning bright.
