I miss my Dad. He passed away on July 4, 2011. He was always full of good advice and concern for his children and grandchildren. He prayed for us continually and we felt safe because of his prayers. He loved the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He served faithfully in his calling over the Stake Records. He loved his country and was very patriotic. My last telephone conversation was about his ancestors and he answered some questions I had about them. I hope I can live my life in such a way that he would be proud.
