One of the things that I am planning to do is share ancestor stories. Sharing conversion stories will of course, be in some of the histories. I loved Elder Walker's message. Blessings for this one!LeAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18107717294803352571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-90911570700595137342014-05-21T21:14:39.080-04:002014-05-21T21:14:39.080-04:00Yes, the Great Lorain Ward as he said, and it wasn...Yes, the Great Lorain Ward as he said, and it wasn't just a label, he made it so. He helped us to rise up to the name, for sure. I remember him making tshirts for people during a particular challenge that said, "I went the extra mile" or something like that. He was just a humble, wonderful man. Love him!

I grew up in the Cleveland area and he, Laverne and daughters Candee and Paula were in my ward. I am the same age as Candee, so we went to Mutual together. I remember what a distinguished, handsome man he was and how he was always so kind. Thank you for giving me a moment to walk down memory lane. He was a great man.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05519494966270700304noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-14282727171340791112014-05-20T22:10:52.550-04:002014-05-20T22:10:52.550-04:00Love that it's a stepfather that you are talki...Love that it's a stepfather that you are talking about...families come in many different structures. one of my step ggrandfathers was in the Mormon Battalion!Great Grandma Linhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791149428495689835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9047346872529008758.post-12431844141832200702014-05-20T21:22:17.385-04:002014-05-20T21:22:17.385-04:00This is so wonderful!

Your Grandpa was one of my favorite bishops and an early inspiration to me of how a priesthood holder should live and how he should care for people. After all these years, the "Great" Lorain Ward holds many awesome memories for me. It was perfect lunch break reading to learn about him. I'd love to hear more about him in future posts. Thank you!Joshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16746193779165497675noreply@blogger.com
