Mike & Nancy

Our branch goes to the North Carolina border. We can't
go over there but Mike & Nancy could.
My cousin Nancy, and her husband, Mike, spent spud harvest with us. The weather was perfect while they were here. They were able to participate in our District Development Meeting and also a Senior Missionary get together with President and Sister Holm at the mission home. It was interesting that they were seated in a different place than us for the dinner and it was if they belonged there. We also attended the temple, so it was a very uplifting time here. Visits and dinners with members of our branch and a trip to the beach, of course, was part of our itinery. They blended in very well and we think it was a great opportunity for them to get a taste of missionary life and we think they will be naturals being proselyting missionaries. The members loved them as they did Alease. Bro. Brayboy was very grateful to Mike as he played a detective and found the family who introduced him to the church, who he will be eternally grateful. Through his efforts, Bro.Crane called Bro. Brayboy and what a phone reunion after over 30 years! It was a wonderful time and we love sharing our mission with family. Just wish we could pick up the branch and take them home with us. Mike & Nancy are ready to come back with us to visit.

growing it in Idaho. The blossoms
are large and gorgeous.
