Dear Family,
That letter was amazing!
I’m so glad that so many family
members were able to see Grandma before she left this earth. This may sound
like I’m a cold person or something, but when I heard that grandma was dying it
didn’t really bother me. I feel as if
Grandma had done everything she could have possibly done on earth. She was such a great example to all; a wonderful
mother, an amazing wife, a faithful member of the church, and probably the most
loving person I have ever met. When I think about Grandma, I think about
one of the most loving and honest people I have ever known. I
loved her so much for her honesty. My
three favorite lines that Grandma often said were, "Miles, say
PLEASE" “You missed to many open
shots tonight" (after the Dayton bball game), and "Don’t talk to your
mother like that, if I would’ve talked to my mother like that she would’ve beat
me haha." Grandma always joked
that she was ready to die and I kind of believed her. I feel as if she was as ready as she would
ever be. Death isn’t really something we
can ever be completely ready for, but I know that Grandma is in a better place.
I know this because in Alma Chapter 40:
verses 11 and 12 (Please read this, its GREAT) it describes the state of
the soul between death and the resurrection. It says that she "will be taken home to
God" who gave her life. She will be
received "into a state of happiness.
I’m so grateful for the wonderful plan of salvation and all that it
entails!
I’m sorry I am all out of time. Stay strong!
Don’t worry about me, all is well
in the life of Elder Adams. The MTC is
the best, as are all of you. You’re in my prayers! Tell Gramps I love him and that I am praying
for him day and night. Church is true! Peace!
XOXO Elder A. AKA Willard
ps- A member of the MTC presidency told me the news of
Grandma passing away this morning.
ps- I sent you a letter today. Should be there soon.
ps- I forgot my camera
yesterday, so I have no pics of the great adventure. Sorry about that. I described all that happened in San Fran in
my letter.
