At noon, today, we had an opportunity to meet a family, which is rather unusual, but dad works mostly in the evenings; so he asked us to come at noon when he gets out of bed. During the visit we realized that the wife is the daughter of Sally DeFord; we almost asked her to play something on the piano for us, but we didn't. It was interesting to talk to her about her mother's work. Elder Gowans used a lot of her music when he was a choir director, 12 years ago.

Afterwards we drove up to the Post, ate lunch and picked up a lady who  needed a ride home from her doctor's appointment. She is unable to drive and her husband was not able to get away to assist her, so she called us. We are happy to help her out.

Later in the evening we met with two more families; one lady, who is active duty Navy, recently went through a divorce; she has a cute little four year old daughter, she is sending her up to Maryland to stay with her dad for the rest of the summer. The other lady had a son about the same age. Everyday we meet wonderful families who work hard to serve our country and keep their families strong and healthy. From time-to-time we are able to do something to assist them in doing that.
