Time and All Eternity

Happy ALOHA Friday to all. Catching up on our lives here and thinking of each of you.

Last night was a special night for us and for 30 couples in our family line. With the help of Megan to tend the boys, with John and Lindsey and Steve and Laurie Tueller, and Johnson Mak, also a fellow named Dave Paddock, we had the privilege of performing sealings of couples. One of the highlights was having Lindsey and John be the couple for Elzaver LINDSEY Neal and Roxana Whitcomb. How interesting after all these 28+ years that she would be at the altar at the time the person for whom she was named would be sealed! Also, L. acted for ROSE Lodge who was sealed to dad's Grandpa, James Wilbur Bearse. These were special moments. I was remembering all of YOU and the time we were all together in the sealing room a few years ago to do this.

At the end of our session, the Tuellers were at the altar when my oldest known ancestors on my dad's paternal line were sealed, too. John Walker and Catherine Barless as well as Joseph Falcuss and Eleanor ?? were couples married in the early part of the 1800's. Many others were significant in this group as well, plus Lucy Hay's parents. I was truly touched with the Walker/Barless and Falcuss/Eleanor couples, and feel now more "complete" knowing my/our eternal chain can go back that far. One thing is for sure, more work is left to do to get back to Adam! I think that my daughters get to help do that ! ! !

School week ended fine. It was the popular "credit card sandwich bar" day, so they were fed when they left and seemed to like that. Moving on to credit ratings, risk management and investments, then identity theft/fraud.

Life is good. I hope it is that way for you all, too.

Thought for the day: When we look for the good in others, we discover the best in ourselves. Martin Walsh
