Dear Missionaries,
Just a note, because I felt you would all like to know, if you did not
already catch the obituary of one of our finest, Sister Eleise Smith, who
served two years with us as Mission Secretary and Accountant (her husband
Mearle Smith). She passed away last Tuesday and the funeral was last
Saturday. Many of you were privileged to have your lives touched by this
wonderful couple. Missionary work was such an important part of their
lives. Many of their children served missions. Mearle served a mission as
a young man and the two of them served two missions, one in the Utah Provo
Mission (doing the same things they did in Scotland) and the other in the
SEM. Mearle also was in a Branch Presidency at the Missionary Training
Center in Provo for several years while I was there.
Some of you had the privilege of being invited to their flat in Edinburgh
for lovely meals. She was a wonderful cook and homemaker. She made a
difference in this world.
Right now, Mearle and his family could use some of your love and support.
If you have a moment, please write a short note to them and let them know of
your support. The email address is:
mbsmith@lehi.net
Sister Clyde and I both caught nasty colds while in Tucson visiting our son,
Lance, and family. But we are on the mend and turning our thoughts to the
reunion at the April General Conference. We hope to see you there.
Until then, know we delight in hearing from you.
With love to all,
Norman and Phyllis
