Aloha!

I was in church about a month ago when a member of the ward asked me about the goings on in our family. What we were doing and such. I told him how we were soon leaving for Hawaii for a family vacation, and we would be staying at my wife's uncle's vacation home on Kona, and I asked if he happened to know Rod. (Angie's uncle) He said... you mean... Poor, Poor Rod. 

Well, we got to Hawaii and it all makes sense. 

We were the guests of our now favorite uncle and aunt Rod and MaryAnn Garner. We had the most wonderful time in their home in Hawaii, Such a beautiful and comfortable place We can't thank them enough. Here's some pictures from our Hawaii trip.

I miss you Billy

Four years ago today, (Feb 4, 2005)  my Uncle and friend Bill Brown died of brain cancer.

When I returned from my mission, Bill pulled some strings and got me a job, and

I had the privilege to work with Bill for 13 years at Fresenius Medical Care. 

That's a lot of years in the same building together, day in day out, and  I can tell you that 

Bill was loved by a lot of people. I still get questions from Bill's friends at Fresenius wanting to know how his family is doing. I now work in the same shop that Bill managed for the Molding Department, and four years later, it's still a common occurrence when a James Taylor tune is heard on the radio, for four grown men to slow down their work and with a few tears in our eyes,  remember of our friend Bill.  

My Beautiful girl.

Angie recently said to me that she wasn't pretty. This might not make her feel better, but I must say, She's delusional!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Happy Birthday Ryan!
I know that Ry might not be too happy that I am posting this but it's his Birthday and Piper and I wanted to let him know how much we love him. I am so grateful for you as a husband and a father. I appreciate all you do for our family and how hard you work to make everything better. I look forward to spending the evening with you in Park City and dinner at Ruth's Chris. You deserve a nice night out!
We love you and hope you have a wonderful Birthday!!
Angie & Piper
