On 5 March 2019, I posted chapter five of "... Miracles", promising another chapter, "to be continued" in Roseville, Michigan.
I noted Wed. 5/23/2018: “Our mission president announced in zone conference yesterday that the Toledo and Cleveland stakes will join our MDM 7/1/18, as that Ohio mission dissolves!”
Preparation day Mon. 7/9 was our 47th wedding anniversary, celebrated in New Baltimore by Anchor Bay. Sweet!

Friday the 13th of July: Detroit Symphony Orchestra behind the Ford House, with fireworks over the lake afterward. Kay & I loved the uplifting music, casual setting, and memorable experience.
Kay texted our oldest son on Friday 8/10/1:23pm, soon after the final diagnosis from her doctor:
“Please call. Important. Love you.”
After packing up and clearing out, we left our Roseville home the next day and headed back to Utah for pancreatic-cancer treatments. Kay felt better after we got away on the road west -- a miracle and tender mercy.
Having completed twelve months of our 23-month assignment, we “returned with honor” to be close to family and friends for the final few weeks of Kay’s mortal life.
Throughout our full-time, twelve-month mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, we were blessed with daily miracles and tender mercies. Kay and I will always be grateful.
Now “this old man” is settled in Ogden to stay until “transferred” to reunite and work again with my eternal companion.
“Have a blessed day,” as our dear Michiganders say. Keep the faith!
