Sister Lyon took my place as Secretary to the President. It was hard to take down my name and leave my office "cubbie".

Elder Lyon took Elder Millet's place as Finance Officer. We loved working in the office and will miss the square but will especially miss President and Sister Holmes.

A last goodby to my wonderful commercial sewing machine. Since Troy gave away all my fabric my quilt sewing days are over. The Humanitarian Center picked up this dear old friend. Well, as we say, don't cry because its over, smile because it happened.

It has been our great pleasure and joy to attend Music and the Spoken Word almost every week. Once a transfer the departing sisters and couples are recognized. This was our turn and our last hello to cousin Lloyd Newell and Jerry Ipson. We will miss you the most.

It's Christmas time again on Temple Square. We are so fortunate to be here for two holiday seasons. The snow and the lights on the cedar of lebanon were so beautiful. The cedar is lit only every other year.


It is so wonderful to see the temple surrounded by the lights of Christmas.

Thank goodness for pansies. Even in the winter they grow and bloom until Spring.

We loved the Coburn's halloween costumes. James and Samuel octopuses and Alenda and Maryanna were jellyfish. Cute, cute. My costume was an orange blouse and a black suit. Such is life.
