So Long FAREWELL

The farewell today was fabulous! Matthew had an amazing turnout. The church was filled to capacity and more. All of our family was there, along with Kaye and Joe, Sarah and a big chunk of her family along with a lot of other friends. Matthew paid a wonderful tribute to Dad. He had all of us laughing, especially as he closed his talk with "I'm headed to the Ecuador Guayaquil South Mission and I'll see you all in two years (about to sit down) AMEN." I can't wait to hear that Homecoming talk in two years...what a different young man he will be. I am excited to hear his testimony grow and see his love for the people of Ecuador.

For Mom's birthday and Father's Day, Kim, Tam, Matthew and I opted to give Mom and Dad this life sized (or slightly larger) cardboard cutout of Matthew.
It's totally perfect that he put the greasy Allred's t-shirt on!A little creepy to see both together.
