returned missionaries

 


On Thursday my parents returned from their mission.  It took them about three days to drive so Monday was their last day.  We are so proud of them and their service in Nauvoo and Carthage.  Such special church history sites.  Here are a few photos Dad sent during the 17 months of their service.


During Covid they were able to host a lot of Zoom tours at Carthage at the house of Joseph Smith's martyrdom.

This is the room it happened.


Since Mom and Dad were FM missionaries (facilities management)  they did a lot of mowing, sometimes of push mowers and sometimes on fancy big mowers like the one above.


Jospeh and Hyrum kept them company during quarantine.


It's really cold by the Mississippi River and these chunks of ice came from the river and floated to the side.


On cold days they would work in the green house with other missionaries.


Carthage has a visitor's center mom cold play the piano in.

I look forward to hearing more stories in person in coming months and years.  This was a time we will not forget.
