Gary signed up to help with a temple session on Saturday morning in May and had two great moments--
Sitting in the room waiting for the prayer meeting to start, he connected with one of the men who we had interviewed with his wife regarding their service as mission president and spouse. This was an especially tender experience for all of us as his wife was dying from breast cancer at the time. I am sure I recorded about this at the time. His wife had passed away and he had recently remarried and they were both serving in the Ogden Temple on Saturday mornings. Gary loved connecting with this good man and I loved getting an update and being reminded of that whole sacred experience.
Then later in that same shift, he was able to see his brother in law, Gary, and help him with a part of the endowment. He came home tired after doing a shift in the morning and going back for a shift in the night as well, but it had been a great day for him to serve.
