Unfortunately, there was a miscommunication in the agency regarding the passing of Elder Watson. But, I want you to know we are here as your extended family and we will continuously keep you in our prayers especially during this time of year. As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of family and friends.
