Odawara, Kawasaki, Tokyo, Omiya, Kofu, Iwaki, Fuji Shi | | Your Occupation: Real Estate Developer | | Spouse: Sheila Robinson | Comments:
I was able to make a return trip to Japan about a year after my mission. A great experience to get to know the members as regular folks. Have kept up the language somewhat. My wife Sheila and I have 7 children, five of whom live in the US. I've been a self employed business owner. I develop assisted living senior retirement communities for either investor groups or non-profit groups. Have served in most local callings in the Church from organist to stake president. Presently on a local service mission while maintaining business interests part time. Do a fair bit of traveling now, taking in month long trips now that children are grown. Antarctica last winter, African Safari this winter. Holy Land trip tops them all. I still think of my mission to Japan as one of the best experiences of my life.
BTW, I was able to meet with President & Sister Abo in Hawaii during my honeymoon and then again some years later when he was suffering from Parkinson's. Still had a great spirit about them. Wonderful humble folks.
I'd love to hear from other alumni and how you're doing. All the best, the Church is still true! |
