Life happens and it is not always fun....

Went to Utah for a family reunion and stayed for a funeral.

A heartbreaking funeral...

...for my nephew's sweet wife.
Bunny's obituary here.
Here are some great quotes for trials in life:
"You and I will face difficulity... in our lives, and we expect it because of what we know about who God is and that we are his children, what his hopes are for us, and how much he loves us. He will give us no test without preparing the way for us to pass it." - Henry B. Eyring

“Everybody in this life has their challenges and difficulties. That is part of our mortal test. The reason for some of these trials cannot be readily understood except on the basis of faith and hope because there is often a larger purpose which we do not always understand. Peace comes through hope.” - James E. Faust

"The gospel of Jesus Christ is not insurance against pain. It is a resource in event of pain, and when that pain comes (and it will come because we came here on earth to have pain among other things), when it comes, rejoice that you have resource to deal with your pain." - Calfred Broderick
