I was ordained a deacon on April 7, 1935 by Thales H. Haskell in the Manassa ward of the San Luis Stake. I was ordained a Priest on September 3, 1950 by Norris D. Anderson. The first person I baptised was Ella Brady.
I was ordained an Elder on November 30, 1964 by EL Ray Christensen.
I was ordained a High Priest on May 29, 1971 by Robert W. Garris.
I recieved my Patriarchal blessing at the age of 59, it was given to me by Patriarch LaVere Bagwell on December 16, 1979.
My three sons have received both that Aaronic and Melchizedek Priesthood. I have had the privilege of administering to members of my family when they have been ill. I have been able to give my children special blessings when they have gone away to school or had a special need of some kind.
The power of the Priesthood is important in our home. Our children always pray about decisions that need to be made. We always administer to the sick in our family.
