After packing all our stuff, having to ship boxes home because there was no room and leaving our Elk antlers because there was no room, we stuffed our last possession into the car and slammed the car door shut. It was so full, we couldn't get another thing into our car. After months of teasing Sister Lee with a Ghool that they hid everywhere in the apartment to scare me, and teasing me with pretend mice they left everywhere in the cereal, in the fridge. on the door knobs, in the food closet, on the stairs, in the back seat. They loved it. So when they told us they had a surprise for us we were a little nervous. Sitting at the kitchen table, the two elders came up from the stairs with two hymn books. Those two missionaries sang "God, be with you till we meet again" Tears streamed down our faces as we listened to these young men say good bye to us in the most tender way. It is something we will never forget!
