Today was the funeral service for our good friend LaMar Heslop. I wish I had a photo from that first day we moved to Monrovia - he was there with the other great men from the ward - Aulvie Bourgeous, Tom Smith, Bishop Neely, Kenley Holmes - and they helped us move in.
Connie was our first babysitter in Monrovia - she asked after you!!
The Heslops - and their extended family - have been part of our lives for many years. I used to walk in the mornings with Polly and Shirley - after he retired, LaMar joined us - never a dull moment walking along with him!! (And Clarissa Heslop shares a birthday with Phoebe!!)
This wedding shot was on display - I recall Shirley telling me that their wedding photographer ended up forgetting to put film in the camera! So all they had were snapshots others had taken. I frankly think this shot beats any stylized wedding photo hands down!
LaMar is the one who called us to be temple workers. He and Shirley worked together at the bookstore on Fridays. Lots of memories with LaMar - we will miss him!
