Saturday Brad attended the funeral of the wife of the Spanish Branch President. It was a sad occasion since she was very young (only in her early 50s). She died unexpectedly, although she has had heart problems for most of her life. At the funeral he noticed a familiar name on the program: "Suzette Alder"! Suzette is a dear friend from way back when I started college. She was the secretary of the Economics department and I was her little assistant. She's always been so good to me. I worked with her for all four years of college, then moved on to work with her roommate (also a dear friend), Rayann Hansen, at Mt. Logan Middle School (my first teaching job). These two girls have been such wonderful examples to me, and have continued to be dear, dear friends over all these years. We were able to spend an hour or two visiting with them after the luncheon. It was a fun surprise, even on a sad day. Love you guys!!!!
