Lynne Pearce, a dear friend from the Rhiwbina Ward in Wales, has married Ben Naylor since we came home. They came to visit us from the 4th to the 8th of April. They are most pleasant and appreciative of anything we can do, and they are full of faith and so happy together. It is nice to see that she has found such joy. Lynne has the most delightful sense of humor. When we decided to go someplace, she would say, "Okay, I better comb my hair and put my teeth in." It is even better when you hear it in her lilting Welsh accent.
I must tell you the story of their meeting. Lynne had been divorced for many years. Ben's wife had recently died. Lynne was at a bus stop and started talking to him. She always talks to everyone and takes every possible opportunity to spread the gospel. When she heard that Ben had recently lost his wife, she perked up and thought it a perfect opportunity to tell him about eternal marriage and that he could be with his wife forever. One thing led to another and Ben joined the Church. He is all in. They fell in love and are now husband and wife and so very compatible.
