Hi Gang, First of all congrat. to Scott and Jen and Leah's birth, we missed another one. It has been a busy and varied week in the cold north country. We took lots of meals to spouses and their families. Attended The Merchant of Venice at the college with the YSA on Institute night. The most impressive event of the week was a memorial service for the four young helicopter pilots who died in a crash of two Kiowa's in Iraq on Jan 25th. The crash was listed a KIA due to enemy fire. All four were with the 10th Aviation BCT from Ft Drum and left families, one was Ben Todd a member of the Watertown ward. It was a very sobering service with lots of Army tradition. Each soldier was memorized by a fellow pilot and a series of pictures. After the service members of the ward and the Stake Presidency were there for a picture. We also helped a spouse finish up some grouting in her kitchen in an old home she and her deployed husband had been working on. We love and miss you all, hang in there and keep the home fires burning. Mom and Dad
