12.17.2008

Mom and Dad had a formal dinner/party at the Grand America this evening, an event that dad has been looking forward to for over one month. Again, one month ago we would have never thought it would be possible for him to attend. The event was for guest service missionaries, special event coordinators, and other church officials.

Dad said that the food was "alright" but that Patty B. (caterer for the church) does a better job. Throughout this cancer journey we have heard numerous times "one of Patty's eclairs sure does sound good". We have tried Patty, we now accept that we will never be able to compete with you.

President Monson spoke at this evening's dinner, dad was so happy to be among so many of his colleagues and dear friends.

Dad is looking forward to serving his shift in the temple tomorrow and Friday.
