Can we be included? Peta and Weasel Bethke, (mark) or is there an exclusive clause?

|You people really know your couples! Can a bridge tournament be far behind?
|Putting together all the couples mentioned so far, we have this list:
|
|S. T. Brooks & wife
|John Q. & Rose Burch
|Tom & Beatrice Burch
|Glenn and Laura Burghardt
|Lyle and Sarah Campbell (plus sons David, Matthew, Andrew)
|Crawford & Jean Cate
|Emery and Elsie Chace
|Gary and Holly Coovert
|Jim and Bobbi Cordy
|John & Mary D'Aiuto
|Al and Bev Deynzer
|Glen & Marion Deuel, Huntsville, Alabama
|James Hall & wife (he described 'em and she drew 'em), 19th century,
|Albany, New York
|Barbara and Frank Haviland
|Jules and Carole Hertz
|Kim and Linda Hutsell
|Graham and Sue Jeffrey, Port Hardy, BC
|Bob and Betty Lipe, Florida
|A. Gordon Melvin and Lorna Melvin
|Paula Mikkelsen and her husband in the 1980's
|David and Margaret Mulliner
|Ida S. & Tom S. Oldroyd
|Roy & Forrest Poorman
|Lovell Reeve & wife
|Mary and Ed Schelling
|Schilder & Schilder
|John and Gladys Sennott
|Paul and Carol Skoglund, Alabama
|Herbert H. and Amelia (Daisy) Smith, Alabama
|Mel Springer, wife, and daughter
|Kevan and Linda Sunderland
|the Van Landinghams, Outer Banks
|Harold and Emily Vokes, New Orleans, Louisiana
|Danny & Hiromi Yoshimoto, California
|
|In addition, there are some couples who are not husband and wife, but
|worthy of mention all the same:
|
|Peter Egerton and family
|Helmut Nisters and mother
|& of course the Sowerby family
|
|It would be nice to hear more about how couples work together on shells.
|(Usually we hear about the opposite!) Bobbi Cordy's description was not
|only to the point, but moving as well.
|
|P.S. to David Campbell: How does a whole family work together on shells?
|You may be able to give us some insight into the lives of the Sowerbys.
