Mark Christensen (1970)
To the amazing souls who made this reunion possible, Thank you is not enough. All the gratitude I can muster, is not enough. I saw relatives and friends I haven't seen in 50 plus years, and was welcomed into the community like I was just there yesterday. That has always been the Sunburst way. I laughed with the stories of my long time friends, and wept on the shoulders of relatives. I can say, that two of the saddest moments I have ever had, were leaving Sunburst the first time, and leaving Sunburst the last time. I look forward to the next reunion, and hope my health remains good. We did get a chance to drive around and look at the country, and I must say, it is beautiful. Second, third and fourth generation farmers have learned how to be good shepards of the land, and it shows. I wish I could have been there to watch it. Again, thank you. That seems weak, and not nearly enough, but it's all I have. One suggestion I have, is to put the names on both sides of the tag. The breeze made it hard to see names.
