Sharon, I just wanted to share an experience I had while visiting with the bishopric and their families recently. I was sharing with them an impression I had while we were in Canada for our most recent trip. Many times when Candy and I go to Canada we have many discussions and thoughts of what might have been. However, during this particular trip I was impressed to think more about what has become rather than what might have been. I felt that we need to celebrate all that is good in each of our lives and celebrate the good choices our family members have made and its impact on our lives. An impression came to me that caused my heart to fill with gratitude for the choice of a young woman, years ago, who had the courage to choose to join the Church. Thank you for that decision and path taken. Because of that choice my life has been richly blessed. That choice brought me the most loving wife and the most precious and fulfilling life I could have ever asked for. It has brought me the joy of knowing fatherhood and what it means to be with my eternal companion. It has given clarity and purpose to life. Thank you for all you have done and all you continue to do with your life. Happy Birthday from your "favorite" son in law.
