Scott & Tauna & Family -So sorry to hear about your Mom. I'm serving a Mission in SLC 4 days a week and so I'm always a little behind on the news. She must have been a great Mom because she raised a Great Son (you). She can be (and is very) proud of you and yours. How grateful we are for the blessing and promise of He who overcame death and hell. Thank God for His wonderful Son who gave His all for us and made it possible for us to see and be with our loved ones again. May the Spirit of Lord bless and comfort your and yours.
