Prize Hat - Pat Mulvey



Pat Mulvey, wife of Bill, (they live in South Carolina), won the prize for best hat in the  Kentucky Derby "Run for the Roses" luncheon for Rally for the Cure. 


Who Remembers Glen Lake?

I think a lot of Mulveys have visited Glen Lake.  We recently had an idyllic vacation at the Glenmore Lodge on Glen Lake.  This was my first time back since a few family trips in the 1960's.  My parents, John & Dorothy Donnelly met at Glen Lake.  I'm happy to say that it is as beautiful as ever!  The inside of the lodge has hardly changed a bit.  We stayed in the Balsam cottage. 






It looks the same inside!


My sons Peter & Matthew enjoyed it there.



The Mulveys had a camp on Glen Lake.  I think this is it and this is Jimmy Mulvey in the 1950's. The sign on the porch says "Camp Weequaric."  Who still goes to Glen Lake?  Wouldn't it be the perfect place for the next reunion?

Rest In Peace Bob Mulvey Sr.

Bob Mulvey Jr., of Pacifica, CA, has informed us that his dad, Bob Sr., passed away on April 16 due to pnuemonia and other complications of his cancer. Fortunately, all the family was with him to say good-bye. Our deepest sympathy to all his family. Here is a wonderful picture of Bob from the 2009 Reunion. We are so glad to have met him again there again after so many years. Bob lived in Manchester, New Jersey at that time.

Mae Mulvey and sons

John Mulvey and Mae Jacoby Mulvey are the son and daughter-in-law of Frank and Jane Mulvey. Here are some early photos of Mae Mulvey and her sons:
Labeled "Easter 1952." Correct me if I'm wrong - I believe Bob is first on the left. Jimmy is the 11 yr old. Frankie is the little one. Not sure who is who for the rest - let us know.
This looks like the same day.
This could also be the same day. That's my father, John Donnelly, next to Mae.
Jimmy, 10 yrs. old - Confirmation, and Frankie 2 yrs. old
This is labeled May 26, 1944 Jim & Billy Mulvey
This looks to be around the same time. Can anyone verify that these are Mae Mulvey's sons?

Bernie Meets Bailey in North Carolina

Bernie & Bailey (Irish Cream)





Marianne & Bernie


Bernadette Mulvey visited San Franciso recently and met with Bob Mulvey Jr. and Bernadette Farrell. From S.F. she went to Las Vegas for the International Toastmasters Convention. She met Sean Jr. and Shane Mulvey for bunch while in Vagas. I am not sure what else she did in Vegas, for as we all know that "what happens in Vegas stays in Vegas." On August 21 Bernie flew to Raleigh to visit with Joe & Marianne Mulvey, Colleen & Nelson Wixson; Kayla, Shea, and Mitchell, as well as Eileen Falcone. We had a nice social get together on Wednesday, August 23, and were joined by Julia Mulvey and Chip from Fayetteville. It was a nice visit and we all had an opportunity to discuss the reunion and renew fond memories of Ireland.

What wonderful relatives we have!
