The 4 children of Ashley Neil and Doris are Kenneth born in 1933, Shirley born in 1936, Jo Lynn born in 1938, and Larry born in 1943. Sylvia's children and grandchildren got to know Larry as Gene the youngest child of Sylvia and Merritt Meacham and a 1st cousin of Larry took him camping, on visits to his southern Idaho cousins,and gave him the opportunity to work on their ranch in the summers mostly in the pea harvest or perhaps the wheat harvest. The Meacham cousins enjoyed meeting Larry and are thankful he attended the reunion last summer. Hopefully we can get better acquainted with our other cousins in the future. Kenneth and Jo Lynn both live in Washington State, Shirley lives in southern California, Larry lives in Virginia but has been spending a few months a year in Seattle with his mother and brother Kenneth. Doris is 98 and will be 99 in February of 2010 if she continues on.
This is a clipping from the Provo Newspaper with Pearl in the front. She does Ti Chi three days a week and hates to miss this time. She also enjoys many nice gatherings and dinners at the Eldridge Center in Provo, Utah. She is a daughter in law to Sylvia Doak and Merritt Meacham. She enjoys her grandchildren (about 25 of them). Also she has about 58 great grandchildren. Living in Provo has given her the opportunity to know many of the grandchildren who have attended Brigham Young University. For the last 20 years she has nearly always had at least one grandchild who visits her. She is a source of stability and love to them. Her son Douglas Meacham lives close and she can enjoy many special occasions in Doug and Trudy's home. She keeps healthy by taking on her mother in law's tradition of studying health and trying to apply what she has learned.
