Meg & Parker












Meg and Parker Marry June 1, 2019 Nashville, TN
The wedding in Nashville of my incredible niece Megan to Parker Millsap was extraordinary in its simple, sweet, pure, happiness. I was honored to witness the formality of this union. These two are a power couple with an unassuming grace. Meg is the first-born of my youngest brother, Rob (the best) and his wife partner in life Joy. The ceremony and the entire weekend was authentic, folksy and full of memorable moments. I wish them the best life has to offer. They deserve it.  The world revolves around me of course. I would be remise if it didn’t thank my brothers for making my trip to Nashville even more remarkable.

Greg---I cannot thank you enough for sharing your Nashville Rustic Retreat with me and being the most righteous Uber brother. Spending time with Wes (no less), Matt (imagine that) and Ralph LauREN was a bonus too. The Ellen cameo was a treat as well. Loved the amble through Johnny Cash Museum and aimless gaps between events (Canoe trip drop off, Monell’s foodfest, wedding at Fat Bottom’s, shuttle to/from Meg & Parker’s house party and back to the airport).
You are the bee’s knees. P.S. Shout out to Michael.

Dan/Netti---I am so glad we had some quality time in Nashville. Shhhh Don’t tell anyone, but the visit to Cheekwood Estate & Gardens was really great and priceless to me. The 55-acre botanical garden and art museum located on the historic Cheek estate home of Leslie and Mabel Cheek built in 1929 is more than worthy of the $30 Million fundraising drive. I am, however, delighted that your diplomatic “complaint” allowed an additional budgeting for the meal adjacent to the meeting of Santas at McNammera’s Irish Restaurant and Tavern. P.S. Netti, your perceptions and observations bring smiles.  

Rob/Joy---Wow. So much fun. I think it’s probably a good sign that Meg and Parker’s canoe capsized. It is clear they have the talent and love it takes to right the ship. You dear brother, however, have got to stop standing on swivel chairs to make important announcements (even as it is your right as father of the bride). As expected, I got my wish to see you tear-up with pride (again). I can see why you love those dragons. You and Joy have made the job of being favorite uncle a cakewalk. (80% of the job is showing up – and that is never regrettable…always fun).Cheers and Thanks. P.S. Joy…your name is apropos. You are amazing.
