FOR ALL ETERNITY

This was a great day for me. To witness my best friend be sealed to her sweetheart in the Draper Temple was joyful. Laura and I met in 1988 in a little branch of the church on Long Island New York. She had lost her membership in the church some time prior and was working on coming back and be baptized. I gave her a Book of Mormon with a picture of our little family on the inside cover along with our testimony. We became friends right at the get go. She was re-baptized and her testimony has become unwavering. She moved out to Utah a few years after our family returned. Through several other marriages that failed, challenges with her health, hardships financially, tremendous trials with her children, she has always been the most giving, compassionate, solid friend I have ever had and always held her testimony to the for front of whatever she did or had to endure. We love to go to yard sales together, make jewelry, scrapbook, watch movies and most of all just being together and laughing about life. She has been such an example to me over the years. She has always had a talent of turning her limited resources into beautiful possessions. Her small apartment is her Heaven on earth.
Laura met Ken about two years ago, feel in love and married last March. Ken was not a member of the church but was familiar with the missionaries. He took the missionary discussions, felt the spirit, read the Book of Mormon, and was baptised shortly after they were married. I had the honor of speaking at his baptism. His bishop also spoke. It was amazing the love he had for Ken. I am so pleased that my friends prayers have been answered. They are such a cute and loving couple. The sealing was beautiful and personal. I'm happy for you both.
