"Sharing the Message of the Restoration and the Resurrection"
Elder D. Todd Christofferson
Whatever it may be, we cannot escape the fact that we need to understand and live the principles of the restored gospel as best we can for our invitations to be inviting. It is something often referred to today as authenticity. If the love of Christ dwells in us, others will know that our love for them is genuine. If the light of the Holy Spirit burns within us, it will rekindle the Light of Christ within them, What you are lends authenticity to your invitation to come experience the joy of the fulness of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

This morning we attended the funeral services for Bill Solomon at the Show Low Stake Center. We walked in with Harold, Vickie, Dennis, and Denise. We went through the line in the Relief Society room at the viewing so we could see Rita and give her our love and condolences. We also spoke with each of her kids, Ricky asked about Jared, and we hugged Aunt Gene who almost lost her wig while giving hugs.
When we went to sit in the chapel I saw Deanne, one of my good friends from high school. She is Rita's cousin on her dad's side. Deanne's mom was Rita's dad's sister.
Here is a copy of the program for the funeral. Bishop Redmond presided.
Bill and Rita were married 53 years. Bill has suffered through cancer twice and had a quadruple bypass. He hung on for 22 years to be with his family. His passing was a blessing to him because of the pain he was in but of great sadness to his family. He liked Dairy Queen, getting wood, and fishing. His last job was a security guard at the Hondah Casino. He had a great love for the Native American people. He coached his kids softball and baseball teams and had a great sense of humor. I am sure is family is going to miss him. What a blessing an eternal family is!
After the funeral James, Harold, Vickie, Dennis, Denise, and I went to Licano's for lunch. James, Harold, Vickie, and Dennis had the special a prime rib carne asada. When they were delivered to the table I was wishing I would have orderd one. I got a taco salad and Denise had a chicken chimi. All of the food was devoured.
I had asked our waitress to take a picture of all of us but she was just too busy. We stepped outside and James took some pictures and then Harold took one with James. He was going to send it to me but hasn't yet.
As we were getting ready to leave Harold said, "See ya at the next funeral." It's a shame we don't get together more often since we all live so close.
James and I made a trip to Walmart and Home Depot. James is looking for a charging cord for the camera and I need a few groceries. I have been looking for a planner for the New Year as many are 18 month planners. I found one I really like. Well at least I like the inside, the outside isn't that great.
I wanted a bigger planner with a monthly calendar and weekly pages and a yearly calendar for birthdays. This is what I got:
The first section for the day will have my daily schedule.
The second one will be a recipe of what I am fixing for
our nice meal of the day.
The third will be notes or a to do list.
Monthly Goals
I'm so excited to get started!
When we got home we rested and I did some reading to James and then listened to my book while I walked. I started getting a sore throat so I took some aspirin along with my Tramadol. James had a meeting this evening as he is going to be an usher at church tomorrow.
