Week of 30 April 1984

Hans left for home in Germany this week. Mom notes “He’s a good boy and we’ll miss him.” She had a department meeting that week in Ogden Canyon. “Had a lot of ordourves (sic) and steak and too much to eat. Enjoyed the seminar.” Michelle and I joined Mom at the German Club farewell at the school and had a visit with family friends Don and Alma Thrash. They were sort of like church grandparents to us.

Week of 7 May 1984

Doing a bunch of home improvement projects in Crystal’s room the weeks before didn’t seem to be enough, so this week she painted her and Dad’s bedroom. They also completed Crystal’s room by laying carpet. The car started acting up. Dad took a day off to figure it out. It turned out to be watery gas.

Our two sets of church grandparents visited, Don and Alma Thrash along with Newell Barlow. Newell’s wife Ruby had passed away years before. They came to attend the re-baptism of Dad. He had a long and challenging repentance process. “Dan baptized, Mike confirmed. Should have taken pictures but forgot. Beautiful service.” She then gives a rather long list of people who attended. She was clearly happy. She wrote “Fred Re-baptized” in large letters and circled the words.
