I spy...




ELDER JORDAN MELDRUM














He has that wonderul missionary tan!















My cute missionary and two of his favorite people

When Jared was on his mission Alma and Carole happened to be in California both Labor
Day's he was there and they drove four hours out of their way to take him and his companion to lunch. Those yearly visits meant the world to me! To have someone I know actually see my son and report back on how he was doing kept me going till I could see him myself. When I found out we were going to San Diego I told my dear friend Julie that I would go see Jordan - no matter how far I had to drive. Well fortunately I only had to drive three miles and what a delight it was to see cute Elder Meldrum and to give him a big hug (I know - I tried to only give him a handshake but as soon as he called me Momma Olsen my arms went right around his neck!!). Rob also served in the California San Diego Mission thirty plus years ago and guess what -- Jordan lives in the same apartment complex that Rob lived in!!














This was taken in the Mission Office, which served as the Institute Building when Rob was there.

That is so wonderful that you were able to see that missionary and report back to his family! I can't believe he is in the same apartments Rob was in! That is awesome!
