March 20
Last night we had a Primary Preparation meeting. In the meeting they had a "To know you is to love you". They had me come up to the front of the room and they read this short history written by Brenda. This lady is a very special person. Her thoughts are always for others. She is always ready to help anyone in need. As a young girl she had many responsibilities because she was the only girl until she was ten years old. Her mothers health was not very good and so much was expected of her. She could out run, out climb, and out calf ride any boy around. She filled a mission to the Central States and attended Ricks College. She was married in the Salt Lake Temple forty three years ago. She has raised seven children, four boys and three girls. Six out of the seven have been married i the temple and the seventh is now preparing to go. When her last child started to school she went back to school herself to become a nurse. She worked for about twenty years again showing her love and concern for others. Later she became an Emergency Medical Technician. Pearl's love for others goes far beyond what is expected. She is continually looking for ways to help others. To know her is to love her Pearl Wilding.

JANUARY 1981
Jan 6
A couple of weeks before Christmas Patricia called , said she was down with a bad back. Wallace & I talked it over and I went to Salt Lake to be with her and help her. She was not able to get her things done for Christmas so I was able to help her.
Glade & Penny moved to Logan Utah on the 21st. Wallace helped them. Their car went out on them so they used our pickup. They came to Larry & Patricia's. It was good to see them. Penny was so excited about going to California for Christmas. Larry & Patricia took them to Ogden to catch the train.
We had a wonderful Christmas. It was so good to be with Larry & Patricia & family. We saw Jack & Velma but they had the flu so we did not stay. We called them a couple of times on the phone. On the way home we stayed with Charles & Evelyn and visited with Darwin, Charlene and family. They had a very nice Christmas.
On New Years day we spent a quiet day together at home. Very nice. Saturday after New Years day Blair, Phileen, her sister, Joddi, David and Wendy came to LaVar and Brenda's. Blair and family had been to Washington and had seen Uncle Harold, Freda, Clay & Lois and children. Uncle Billy Fern, Bruce, Scott, wife and family. They all sent their love. It would be so nice to visit them in their home. Blair and family had Christmas with the Moss family. Blair and Philine are talking about May as their wedding date. She is a very special person.
Jan 7
Today Charles & Evelyn are going to Provo to take their oldest son who will be in the mission home in the morning. Wallace Mark.
There has been so much fog this year. I pray that they will travel safely. It will be wonderful for Charles & Evelyn too because they will have a trip together which will be special for them. God bless them. May God bless Mark in this very special work!
Jan 25
On the 16th I went to Blackfoot. Today was Wallace's birthday and he came this evening. Evelyn & family came. Philine and sister was there. Ice cream and cake was served.
Philine was not feeling well. Wallace said Brenda had made him a cake. She thought we were leaving in the morning. We went to Charles & Evelyn's and Evelyn had the flu so we visited with Darwin & family and then went on to Logan where we stayed all night with Glade & Penny. The next morning we went to Larry & Patricia's. Larry said he was ready to quit smoking. He had asked Wallace to give him a blessing. I am sure he will do well because when he makes up his mind, he will "stick to it". We visited Jack & Velma and family.
On the 20th the 52 hostages had been in Iran as prisoners for 444 days. They were released after President Carter released the Iran's frozen assets. They were released at the same time President Reagan was sworn into office as the new President of the United States. This is a great day! Today the news about the return of their hostages to their families and all the people were celebrating and happy that they were home. They all seemed to thank God. Algeria helped our government get the hostages out of Iran. From what the hostages have said many of them were mistreated and I am sure as the days go by we will find more wrongs against our people.
Jan 28
First snow of the season about 5" so very wet. LaVar has accepted the deputy job for out here. I am sure he will do well.

DECEMBER 1980
December 6
Thanksgiving has been a couple of weeks ago. We had a wonderful time. We had dinner at Brenda's place. I think there were about 33 of us. It used to be when I had Thanksgiving at our place and there was Grandpa & Grandma and my brothers and sisters and their families. We had about 40. Now with just Wallace and I and our family we have such a crowd. We are the old folks now. Darwin and family were moving so they were not there. Larry & Patricia did not have the money to come. It is a long way and with gas as expensive as it is it is hard to go any distance. Rom and Rhonda could not come from Canada for the same reason. It was hard on Blair. I know he felt so alone. It was so good to have the family get together. The meal was delicious and so much food. Brenda was such an angel to have us ll together. LaVar and Brenda's house is so nice. They are still working on it.
Last night we went to Idaho Falls to the temple to be with Mark. He was getting his own endowments so he will be ready to go on his mission. It was a very special meeting and a very special session. Brenda went with us. LaVar was teaching an Emergency Medical Technician class and could not come. Mark had to work today but he is going to get up at 4:00 this morning and go through the temple again. He sure has a special spirit.
We met Falene last night. Blair brought her to the temple. She works in the temple. She seems to be a very nice person.
December 7
Today Wallace & I have been married forty three years. It seems impossible! We have had a very good marriage and he is such a special person. I love him with all my heart! Today was a very special day. We went to church and the rest of the day was easy & comfortable. I pray that Heavenly Father will make it possible that we have many more years together, with health and happiness.
The news the world over is bad. War & rumor of war. We have fifty hostages in Iran. I think the t.v. said today was 400 days as prisoners.
Wallace bore his testimony today. He said Dec 7 was Pearl Harbor Day and also Pearl Wilding Day. He is such a sweetheart, his testimony was wonderful.
