A reader named Cathryn Lee is putting together a reunion to be held at 4 p.m. Oct. 26 for mothers who have been part of the mom-baby groups at Greater Baltimore Medical Center, where Dee Dee Franke has such a following.

Here are some of the details:

 "Hey ladies/babies/toddlers/husbands from GBMC and/or the Tuesday/Friday groups.... Let's get together & see each other. The Charcoal Deli ("my beef shack") will be cooking up pit beef, turkey and hot dogs and serving fruit salad and pasta salad (trying to stay away from anything with major allergy problems) & non-alcoholic beverages. This will also be an opportunity to honor Dee Dee, our baby whisperer. We (as in all of us) will be presenting her with a yearbook (details below).

"The cost will be $25.00 per couple (or $12.50 if you're flying solo), which can be paid the day of the party. This event is not restricted to 2007/2008 mom's group attendees, so if you know anyone from the old school, please pass this along. Hoping this will be a great way for all to catch up.

"Oregon Ridge has a nice playground and room to roam. We will be outside. Might be a little chilly, so bring a layer. If anyone wants to add a few decorations/desserts/activities/favors or whatever, please let me know (cmcl27@verizon.net). Any help is appreciated. We really want to make this a great day for all of us and for Dee Dee, who is such a treasure.

"Please RSVP by October 18th and please mail your yearbook pages by then too, so I will have some time to put it together. Thanks everyone!!"
