A Birthday Shoutout – Oct 16th

Karen Ann (Matteson) Fleury married Timothy Patrick Fleury, son of the late Barbara Hope Riley (1927-2015) and the late Richard B. Fleury, Sr. (1928-1992) back in 1986. Since then we think Karen has had a pretty good ride, and we aren’t just referencing that big black and shiny Harley-Davidson. She has two successful and independent kids, Sean and Erin, who happened to marry wonderful partners. Karen has enjoyed some nice travel adventures, has a beautiful home, and a connection to the Riley Family Tree!

Although it’s Karen birthday, there is a very good chance her attention is focused on her new title as a grandmother. Daughter Erin’s newborn son Oliver has Karen all smiles, as you can see in the following photos.

Happy Birthday to Karen and ask her about her grandson.

Welcome to the World, Oliver

Erin (Fleury) Garceau and Michael Garceau proudly announce the arrival of their son Oliver Michael Garceau on Saturday, August 8th. Oliver weighed in at 7 lbs. and 9 oz. and is 21″ long. Mom is doing well.

Karen (Matteson) Fleury and Timothy Fleury are the proud maternal grandparents. The late great grandparents, Barbara (Riley) Fleury (1927-2015) and Richard “Dick” Fleury (1928-1992) would have been overjoyed.

Oliver is now the 7th member of the 6th generation, who can trace his connection to a distant Riley somewhere/sometime in County Cavan, Ireland.

A Birthday Today! – June 29th*

Timothy M. Fleury, son of Richard (Rick) and Darleen Fleury, was born on this date in Providence, and grew up in Bristol, RI.

Tim’s had a pretty good couple of years lately. Married the lovely Karen Serpa, began married life in Cumberland and welcomed two sons into the world, Emerson and Eliot. But, that’s not all, today he got a new quarterback!
