Proper sentence

Would the proper sentence be Dear Members and Family or Dear Members and Families?
  

Top answer

Hi, Would the proper sentence be Dear Members and Family or Dear Members and Families? You have given no information about the group you are writing to, but the second version is probably better, assuming there is more than one family involved. However, both of these versions sound a bit awkward to me.
