Thanks to the Mormon Church for letting Pa announce his accepting that "Jesus is Lord" and making sure he was baptized in the Eyes of the Lord, and that he was accepted into the priesthood which allowed him to go to the temple, a very proud moment for him and us, his family. We are thankful to know he finally accepted God.

Services will be held on Saturday, June 14, 2025, at 4pm at Our House Assisted Living. 251 1000 N. Main Street, Tooele, UT.
