Dear Bruce and Tamara!
Vern and I met you and your beautiful family in 1976....You probably didn’t
know this but I watched the way you took care of your girls and I tried to
pattern that with my own daughters....In 1979 Tamara watched Audra for me while
I attended Cosmetology school....Kim and Audra are the same age and went to
church together....Sometime in the 1980’s I had this idea that I wanted to give
my sisters and mother a cook book so I hired Tamara (for very, very cheap) to
paint a character of each one of them on the hard cover of a book that had blank
pages....I truly loved what she did to them and so did my family....To this day
that is my one and only cook book that I use on a regular basis...Again in the
1980’s I needed Tamara’s help with a project....I had been asked many times to
help Young Women classes study the art of taking care of themselves and how they
looked....I wanted to be able to demonstrate to them the different face shapes
and what hair styles would look most appropriate on them so, Tamara sketched
these very large, beautiful face shapes on individual ...I was so very excited
to have them in my possession!...Another memory I have is of Bruce,
besides his friendliness and his devotion to callings is a time while Vern and I
were on a trip to Santa Maria Island in Florida I had a severe tooth ache.
I called Bruce and he called me in prescription. As soon as the medicine
got into my system I felt better. Bruce did things like that for us many times
in the last 35 years..In our later years (like right now) as we struggle with
our children “living life” they were both so very compassionate and kind to
us.
We love you both so very much and thank you for the wonderful example you
both have been of true Disciples of Christ.
Love,
Vern and Georgia Anderson
