To Mo and Papa,
My life has been immeasurably blessed because I am your daughter. I grew up in a home where I always felt anchored, secure and loved. You blessed my childhood with traditions and memories that taught me where I came from and about the potential I have as a child of God. Your examples of love and service within the church are a lasting legacy of your love of God that have been passed down to your grandchildren. Most of all, I have appreciated the example of love and respect within your marriage. You have supported each other through many callings and jobs where your time and attention have been divided, and you always help each other accomplish your tasks and goals without expectation. This is deep and abiding unity and love, and it is what I aspire to in my own relationships. Thank you for your love and examples throughout my life. It blesses me and my children every single day. I love you both so much.
Love,
Sarah

A favorite memory I have with Mo and Papa was when we all saw the Nauvoo Pageant together and had a family reunion. I loved visiting the church history sites with you and hearing your insights. You are a great example of parenting and service. You know how to throw a party!

I feel very lucky to have wonderful people like Mo and Papa in my life. They both are great role models and teachers who will always take the opportunity to help the ones they love. My favorite memory of Mo and Papa was the weekend I spent with them over this past summer vacation. During this weekend, I had some meaningful one-on-one time with both Mo and Papa. From them I learned about compassion, Christlike love, and important lessons regarding faith. They're some of the smartest and kindest people I know. Their strong faith and willingness to spread kindness has started a multitude of chain reactions which have touched more people than they know. They are an example to me of how wonderful it is living in the church and I'm thankful for all that they have done to be a light to everyone. I love them and hope their 50th anniversary is as wonderful as they make others feel.
