Stallings Shimai was always pleasant, patient, dedicated, and focused on teaching the gospel—with a sincere love for the Japanese people. Her diligence in studying the language was evident when more than once, after concluding a cottage meeting, she explained that didn’t know what she had said to the investigator---that the words had simply come to her through the Spirit. With her at the helm, we had a large measure of success---and never got lost as we traveled throughout Tokyo, or out into the country.
Because Sister Stallings was able to sight read, we sang a different hymn every morning as part of scripture reading---progressing in numerical order through the hymn book. What a blessing! On “P-Day” she’d play a recording of Mormon Tabernacle choir hymns that her family had sent to her, introducing me to the “Hallelujah” chorus from the choir’s LP recording of the Messiah. She was a special missionary.
