From Myrna: Congratulations to both you and Howard. How wonderful it is to have such an important calling serving Heavenly Father and ward members. Howard will do a great job. He has always been compassionate and has cared for those who are in real need. Those are good qualities to have. You will find that the whole house radiates with the special blessings of our Father as you all strive to help Howard in this special calling. We love you and sustain you all.
From Amy G: Howard, Melanie & family,
Congratulations, er....my condolences! No, really, That is awesome! I always knew whenever Howard wasn't travelling so much, he'd be in the bishopric sooner or later. They were just waiting for him!
