    The O'Jays Family Reunion is a song that always brings me to tears. I've loved this song since I was a teenager.
    Now with my Mom fighting her struggles with Dementia, I,know how important family are and love and support to your ailing parent or family member. Thank you O'Jays.

    This song makes me happy remembering our family gatherings at the parks every summer. Some times there'd be free performances at Fort Dupont Park. Loved those! And for the 4th of July/cookout we'd gather over one of their houses, a long long time ago. ❤ We had a super large family, and some of our close friends who felt like family always joined us😊 Now "most" of them have gone on to be with the Lord. So I cry and smile inside every time I hear this - remembering! Yall - enjoy your loved-ones now, even those that may be a little challenging. Make the most of their presence. Love on them, laugh, dance and hug them often. We did. A lot! Wish I'd / we'd done it even more. 😢

      Yes, we must do this. I am going to reach out to family that I have not seen in years. I want us to come together and meet each other again...I need that connection, we all do. Cook, laugh, cry, love....this is so important, I am praying for this.
