We start with my good friend, good sport, and fellow Conference Minister, Kent Siladi. Here he is preparing either for his sermon on Friday night or the Softball game Friday afternoon (I'm nost sure which). Other than hitting a palm tree dead center with his drive off the third tee, which ricocheted off the tree almost decapitating the dog that was running by; or other than hitting the front wheel of the golf cart with his drive on the 12th hole, which then expolding off the cart into a lake on the other side of the tee box; or other than leaving the hotel Friday evening 2 miles from the church and calling me a half hour later in Carefree, Kent really did an outstanding job with us all weekend.
This is Gabrielle, daughter of Briget Nicholson (pastor at First, Tucson). She was there throughout the weekend, and provided many of us with needed respite from the many tasks we were charged with undertaking.
And here is Donna Gentry, who with Barbara Nordlund co-chaired the local arrangements crew. She is adorned in a beautiful dress bought by her granddaughter Katrina when she was on a visit in Africa (Katrina is our newly called Youth and Outdoor Ministries Coordinator). Donna and Barbara deserve a LOT of thanks from all of us. They were the glue that held this whole weekend together.
