I'm glad we shared that peanut butter and jelly sandwich together on my visit with Gale and Donna this summer. More memories than I could list on a ream of paper. Our house in Marble, the power wagon, guitars and tubbas, fishing, jeeping, ghost towns. See you soon Gale.

Bishop Epperson is a wonderful man and we have many fond memories of him and Donna as they served in our ward. My sincerest condolences to his family as they endure this separation from him.

Such a great man and a lasting influence on me personally. He was always kind and complimentary of everyone he encountered. He was quick with wonderful ideas and suggestions when we served together. Such a faithful man and a true saint. RIP my friend...
