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.
