Time to celebrate

Grandson Tony passed his comprehensive exams recently. Next up: his dissertation. There was a celebration in honor of the new ABD this afternoon at Gecko's in South Jordan.

 Here are a few pictures of the festivities.  Since everyone who reads this blog (I think there are at least six) can identify everyone in the pictures, no explanations are needed.
Suffice to say, a great time was had by all. Thanks, Barb & Dennis. Congratulations, Tony.


                                                                                               The honored guest, showing great relief
                                                                                               that comps are behind him.

Dad - Thanks for adding your great-grandfatherly and grandmotherly dignity to the occasion (as well as your PhD-ness!).
It sure was wonderful news to hear Tony passed his comps after a month of waiting to hear!
Love,

Barb

Is this not joy and rejoicing in your posterity. Congratulations to Tony! Wish I could have been there to give him a big hug. Aunt Julie
