A week for the record books . . .



  • Monday morning Grandma passed away.

  • Monday evening family and friends stopped by to share their love and support.

  • Tuesday was a very emotional day for me. A special family brought us dinner -- they knew Willie's favorite meal. More family and friends stop by.
  • Wednesday was cold and snowy - we had 3 to 4 inches on the lawn. We had more visitors -- sharing more kindness and sympathy.

  • Thursday evening was RS leadership meeting for all ward leaders - I was in charge of the refreshments. More special people stopped by.

  • Thursday night the UTES beat TCU in the battle for the Mountain West football title. Karl and Willie said it was the best game ever -- they kept warm with hand an feet warmers. Scouts are always prepared especially at freezing football games.

  • Friday we viewed Grandma's body and visited with many good friends and family who came to pay their respects.

  • We wished Karl "Happy Birthday" on Saturday.

  • We celebrated and honored Grandma's life in a very nice funeral service.

  • Saturday night we went to Willie's football team party -- it was pretty unorganized but brought our week to a positive end.
