The Clubhouse at The Meadows

Welcome
And thank you for joining Guys family to help celebrate his 80th birthday. We
hope you enjoy yourselves and have an opportunity to reminisce with Guy about
the times you have shared with him and Pam.
This celebration would not have been possible without the efforts and talents of
a lot of people. Sincere thanks goes out to:
Donna and JR (Guy, Jr.), for compiling the guest list, designing, printing,
addressing, and mailing the invitations, and compiling the list of
responses;
Annette and Marc for providing the wonderful decorations and favors for
the afternoon;
Paulette for working with Cater2U Caterers for providing the delicious
food this afternoon;
Susanne and Steve for providing the card we all signed as well as the
glassware;
Pam, Donna, and Paul for supplying the photographs for the slide show;
Paul for solving the slide show technical challenges we initially
experienced;
Nicole for scanning the slides and negatives for use in the slide show;
Nancy for scanning the photographs used in the slide show, and for
creating the slideshow itself;
Annette and JR for entertaining everyone with the Guy Trivia Contest;
Pat Quinn and Gloria Padgett for coordinating the use of the Clubhouse
here at the Meadows;
Pat Quinn, who, in cahoots with Pam, was able to devise the ruse to get
Guy to his own party without suspicion.
The 40s
Sentimental Journey
(By Les Brown, with Vocals by Doris Day)
Gonna take a Sentimental Journey,
Gonna set my heart at ease.
Gonna take a Sentimental Journey,
To renew old memories.
Got my bags, got my reservations,
Spent each dime I could afford.
Like a child in wild anticipation,
Long to hear that, "All aboard!"
Seven...that's the time we leave at seven.
I'll be waitin' up for heaven,
Countin' every mile of railroad track,
That takes me back.
Never thought my heart would be so yearny.
Why did I decide to roam?
Gonna take a Sentimental Journey,
Sentimental Journey home.
Sentimental Journey.
The 50s
Love and Marriage
(By Frank Sinatra)
Love and marriage, love and marriage
Go together like a horse and carriage
This I tell you brother
You can't have one without the other
Love and marriage, love and marriage
It's an institute you can't disparage
Ask the local gentry
And they will say it's elementary
Try, try, try to separate them
It's an illusion
Try, try, try, and you will only come
To this conclusion
Love and marriage, love and marriage
Go together like a horse and carriage
Dad was told by mother
You can't have one
You cant have none
You cant have one without the other
The 60s
Big Girls Dont Cry
(By Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons)
Big girls dont cry, big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry (they don't cry)
Big girls don't cry (who said they don't cry)
My girl said good-bye (my oh my)
My girl didn't cry (I wonder why)
(Silly boy) Told my girl we had to break up
(Silly boy) Thought that she would call my bluff
(Silly boy) But she said to my surprise
Big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry (they don't cry)
Big girls don't cry (who said they don't cry)
Baby I was cruel (I was cruel)
Baby I'm a fool (I'm such a fool)
(Silly girl) Shame on you your Mama said
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you cried in bed
(Silly girl) Shame on you, you told a lie
Big girls do cry
Big girls don't cry (they don't cry)
Big girls don't cry (that's just an alibi)
The 60s
Teach Your Children
(By Crosby, Stills, and Nash)
You, who are on the road must have a code that you can live by.
And so become yourself because the past is just a good bye.
Teach your children well, their father's hell did slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams, the one they picks, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.
And you (can you hear?), of the tender years (do you care?)
Can't know the fears (can't you see we) that your elders grew by
(must be free to),
And so please help them (teach your children) with your youth (to believe),
They seek the truth (make a world that) before they can die (we can live in).
Teach your parents well, their children's hell will slowly go by,
And feed them on your dreams, the one they picks, the one you'll know by.
Don't you ever ask them why, if they told you, you would cry,
So just look at them and sigh and know they love you.

Feels So Good
(By Chuck Mangione)

The 80s
Through the Years
(By Kenny Rogers)
I can't remember when you weren't there
When I didn't care for anyone but you
I swear we've been through everything there is
Can't imagine anything we've missed
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do
Through the years, you've never let me down
You turned my life around, the sweetest days I've found
I've found with you ... Through the years
I've never been afraid, I've loved the life we've made
And I'm so glad I've stayed, right here with you
Through the years
I can't remember what I used to do
Who I trusted, who I listened to before
I swear you taught me everything I know
Can't imagine needing someone so
But through the years it seems to me
I need you more and more
Through the years, through all the good and bad
I knew how much we had, I've always been so glad
To be with you ... Through the years
It's better every day, you've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay, I'll stay with you
Through the years
Through the years, when everything went wrong
Together we were strong, I know that I belong
Right here with you ... Through the years
I never had a doubt, we'd always work things out
I've learned what love's about, by loving you
Through the years
Through the years, you've never let me down
You've turned my life around, the sweetest days I've found
I've found with you ... Through the years
It's better every day, you've kissed my tears away
As long as it's okay, I'll stay with you
Through the years!
The 90s
Youre Still the One
(By Shania Twain)
(When I first saw you, I saw love.
And the first time you touched me, I felt love.
And after all this time, you're still the one I love.)
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
The 2000s
100 Years
(By 5 for Fighting)
I'm 15 for a moment
Caught in between 10 and 20
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
I'm 22 for a moment
She feels better than ever
And we're on fire
Making our way back from Mars
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to lose
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
I'm 33 for a moment
Still the man, but you see I'm a they
A kid on the way
A family on my mind
I'm 45 for a moment
The sea is high
And I'm heading into a crisis
Chasing the years of my life
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy, Time to lose yourself
Within a morning star
15 I'm all right with you
15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
Half time goes by
Suddenly youre wise
Another blink of an eye
67 is gone
The sun is getting high
We're moving on...
I'm 99 for a moment
Dying for just another moment
And I'm just dreaming
Counting the ways to where you are
15 there's still time for you
22 I feel her too
33 youre on your way
Every day's a new day...
15 there's still time for you
Time to buy and time to choose
Hey 15, there's never a wish better than this
When you only got 100 years to live
