One Year Ago.....


It will be one year on August 22nd that we received that heartwrenching phone call at midnight that Bryan's cousin, Dr. Lansing Ellsworth, his son, Dallin, who just applied to medical school, along with seven members of Lansing's medical staff and their pilot had been involved in a fatal plane accident in Moab, Utah.
You never really grasp the information you are receiving as being real. It's more like a dream -or being in a movie. The information received instantly changed lives, changed dreams and changes the way you view things.
There is a reason for everything - everything under the stars. We know that, but living that is different, much more difficult to do. Life does go on, miracles continue to happen, spiritual experiences are felt, memories of their legacy of compassionate, caring individuals remains to all who loved Lansing and Dallin.
Life is not always easy . . . I guess it was not meant to be - was it?

Life is not easy but aren't we so glad that we have the gospel and the Lords comfort to help us get through these times in our lives. May the Lord continue to help you all find comfort and peace.
