Happy Easter everyone! And happy birthday to Lynsey, yesterday!
Dad and I have both been sick most of the past week. And Gran went to Uncle John's and Aunt Annie's for the weekend with Jocie and Janie. She just got home this evening. It's been pretty quiet around here. Beth, Gerald, and others, have been pitching in next door to be sure Grandpa and Grandma are okay.
Before I forget...Last Saturday night (March 19) when we went to the DYW where Emma won! I meant to say thank you to those of you whose names were on the program list as having donated toward the scholarships. That was very generous of you, and was a worthy cause! Emma really made the family proud.
One day while I've been in bed, I watched Sister Helen Lundgren's funeral service. Gregg had sent a DVD to me in the mail. It was a great service, and it was nice to see lots of familiar faces from that Ward.
James, we were all sorry to hear of your Grandma Staples passing, and yet we know that it has been a relief in some ways. I'm so glad that you, Aimee, and all the kids were able to be with your family. It looked like it was a wonderful family get together.
I imagine you all know...but just in case. Everett Parsons passed away on Friday. I shared his obit on facebook, and got Bertie's address and phone number. His funeral was yesterday, I think.

Two of my favorite actors passed away this past week too. George Kennedy, a favorite of mine in Airport, and Charade. Then Ken Howard, who played Thomas Jefferson, in 1776.
George Kennedy passed away here in Idaho. He and his wife had ended up raising some of their grandchildren, and later on retired to live near them.
Like I said, it's been pretty quiet around here. Lots of time for reading and movie watching, when we've felt up to it. Dad and I each picked a movie. He picked Battleship, which I had never seen, but really liked! Then I picked The Age of Adeline, that I got for my birthday. We both enjoyed it very much.
Then this morning Dad watched a video of a talk by Elder Tad R. Callister, of the Seventy, called What is the Blueprint of Christ's Church?. He was really impressed with it, so I watched it too. What a wonderful talk. If the link below doesn't work, I'm sure you can find it by searching the title. It's a real testimony builder, puts it out plain and simple.

Seems that a lot of deaths have touched us recently. Most recent, that of Tralynne Migliori. She is a dear friend of Natalie's, and their whole family is close to Sam, Nat, Ben, and Lynsey. I have linked her obituary below. Sam will be one of her pallbearers.

Even with some trials, I hope this can be a good week for us all. I love and appreciate each one of you! Mom/Johanna/Nana
P.S. thanks so much for the letters last week from Aimee, Ben, and Sam!
