I wanted to tell all of you about my newest adventure so am sending this to each of you

When I was on my mission, one of the couples was from Liberty, Missouri ( Harvey and Laura Evans). I have stayed in touch with many of the missionaries including these  two.  Unfortunately, Harvey passed away suddenly  not quite two years ago.

Sometime ago, the Church awarded a contract to my son, David, an architect to design a new Stake Center  building. It is built on the same property as the new  Kansas Area Temple that was announced a couple years ago in General Conference.

Until I received a letter from Laura several months ago that their  Temple in Liberty was coming right along,  I had no idea that was where it was. A couple weeks ago, she called me on a Thursday morning and said she had talked to their Stake President and he said the dedication of their new Stake Center would be on the 6th of November and that I needed to come and be there for it.

I talked to David and he and Eulale (his wife) will be going one the 3rd for meetings
he has on Friday and Saturday. I also called Richard and he got me a first class ticket so I could be more comfortable and a wheel chair so I won't have to walk far. He has lots  of flying miles which he used for me. I am really excited to be there and to also see the Temple exterior at least.  

Laura called me back and asked me to stay a few more days, but I could not change my ticket so she said I have to come back again so she can take me to all of the things and places there are to see back there.
 
Well, that is a synopsis of my plans. I am excited but a bit anxious; I have not been on a flying trip for a very long time.  It should be a great experience.
 
I hope all is all with you and yours. God bless you all.

Love, you,
     Grandma and Eva

Congratulations to him, as well. And how wonderful it is of Richard to make certain that you get to travel in comfort (and style). You certainly deserve all of the great treatment. Have fun. We will be thinking about you and your great adventure.
