Visiting Family

Leon, Bonnie Lynn, Don and Gloria went to Belen, New Mexico for Keith's funeral, and on Friday evening we had dinner with Erma and Keith's family. The ward provided it. All of Keith's children were there and most of their grandchildren also. Loraine lives in California, three of her children are married and 2 of them are not. Dick and Cindy live in Los Alamos, I don't know about their family, Sue Ann and Keith live near Provo, We saw all of their chidren but I don't know about them. Barry and his wife live in Los Alamos. I know his wife's name but I can't think of it. Kelly and Ruth live by Belen. We didn't have time to get acquainted with them as I would have liked. The funeral was wonderful. The boys and grandsons and sons in law made Keiths casket. It was beautiful It was made of white pine with cedar panels. The girls made the liner. The funeral was good. The children did the talks and music. It was a real tribute to Keith. We returned home on Saturday after the funeral. Don and Bonnie had to be to work on Monday.

On March 24 I flew to Phoenix and Joe and Doris Faye picked me up at the airport. I spent the night and the next day with Doris Faye, getting her final things done before moving to Phoenix. On Tuesday Erma came and we rented a car and went to a motel. It was nice spending time with Erma. We went to the temple then helped get things ready for the wedding the next night. All of Doris faye's children were there. Joe and Darla came first. of course. Warren and kathy live in the valley and Carl and Naelene live in Mesa, I think. Pam and Philip live west of Phoenix so they were already there. Jacob and Ellen live in Minnesota. So does Joe and Darla. EJ lives in Alaska. There are a lot of grandchildren and some great grandchildren too.

The wedding was very nice and they are so happy. Erma and I went to Sun City West and saw Rex and Nancy. On Friday night Bonnie and Gloria came. We had breakfast with Leons three girls and Jay and Kimberly. That was special. We went to Phoenix on Saturday night for a reception with Bert's children. that was special too. On Sunday morning, Bonnie and Gloria came home. It was a good trip. Doris Faye and Bert are very happy.
