Farewell, David. Until We Meet Again.

Yesterday, Scott's older brother, David, was laid to rest after living with the effects of Parkinson's Disease for twenty-two years. David was 72. 

David and his wife Aliece were married in the Provo Utah Temple in 1976. An attorney for 37 years in Santa Barbara, they raised their family of five children in Carpinteria, CA. The service yesterday was a beautiful tribute to a family man who honored his covenants with God.

While David's mortal remains are returned to the earth, we know that his spirit continues to live, and will one day be reunited with his body in the resurrection, following the pattern of Jesus Christ. David taught this truth his whole life. We know we will see our brother again.

Funerals are family events. Scott enjoyed this reunion with his sister Karen and brother Eric.

The cousins also enjoyed getting together again, coming from Idaho, Las Vegas, Oklahoma, Utah, Minnesota, and Iowa. Other cousins weren't able to attend in person but viewed the service by live stream.

Some of our children, spouses, and grandchildren were able to attend. 

 The cousins say, "Goodbye, until we meet again."
