August 28, 2021 at 12:22 pmI was so sad to hear of Brother Reeves passing. My thoughts and prayers have been with your family especially Sister Reeves. Shortly before we left on our mission we enjoyed a visit from David and Lucy. He brought a picture from his mission of an Elder Hansen he served with in Hawaii. He wanted to know if that happened to be my dad because he had heard my dad had also serve in Hawaii. It was not my das, but enjoyed a nice visit. It was so thoughtful of him to find the picture and stop by to find out. I wish I was home to stop by and visit with you and listen to stories. I pray you will find peace and comfort at this sad time. Love, Janece
