Today we had

an open house for a friend and neighbor, Pat, who is moving to Arizona.  I know this is a hard move for her, as she has lived in her house for 50 years and her health is not good.  I was grateful that a ward member found out she was leaving so soon, as she pulled together this gathering and asked if I could have it here at the house.

It was so nice to have so many friends from the ward and neighborhood come.
