When I was little boy, I remember one autumn day while raking the leaves, Papoo explained to me his dream for his family. Listening to the dream was more fun than raking the leaves.

PIRC (Plomaritis Information Reunion Committee) is not the dream but symbolic of the dream; the embodiment of Papoo and YaYa’s 26 grandchildren and a tribute to their values. Barbara and Heather [Aunt Gail’s daughters] took to YaYa as their own. Right up to the end, YaYa was waiting for Sara’s arrival. Was she a good YaYa? You be she was.

The policy making decisions of the Financial Committee will shape the direction and destiny of PIRC while the Family Council shapes its vision and moral character. Its mission is to keep its 26 members connected, informed, and inspired through newsletters, pictures, and reunions spaced three to five years apart.

The Financial Committee will be made up of one cousin from each family group. The criteria for qualification is that you are at least 21 years of age, have a genuine interest, no less than three feet tall, and able to count to ten in less than one hour. The Chairman Secretary will appoint the first three members based on a consensus. When the committee of three meets, their order of business will be to select additional qualifying members and the date and site of the next reunion.

PIRC Corporation:
26 Cousins and their children represented by trustees.

PIRC Committee (Shapes direction and destiny)

B) Coordinating Committee (Judicial Veto)

Family Council (Shapes vision and moral character)

This contribution of ($5,000) from YaYa (and any other contribution) to the PIRC financial fund is made with the understanding that the Financial Committee will, within PIRC’s defined mission, determine the use of its funds primarily in the execution of family reunions, and secondly, in the funding of its two family projects: 1) Family Album, and 2) Family Newsletter; and any future PIRC family projects agreed upon by the majority of its trustees.*

The Financial Committee shall be made up of one grandchild from each of YaYa’s seven children.

The Coordinating Committee will ensure the integrity of PIRC’s mission through the power of veto, but will not legislate. Members of the Family Council may make recommendations in written form to the president with copies sent to each of the trustees.
