But here we are.
Today, the Linton's daughter-in-law passed away after 36 passionate, determined years capped by a remarkable 8 year mixed-martial-arts-street-fight against the big C. (For those of you who followed their story, here's the touching tribute to wife, mother, daughter Alisa Johnson Linton Obituary).
Several of you have inquired how you can help. Our ward is helping to provide food. If you would like to contribute, please contact Sisters J. Tanner/R. Goldy.
Funeral services will be held at 11:00am on Friday May 22, 2015 at the Lehi East Stake Center at 851 N 1200 E. A viewing will be held on Thursday evening from 5:30-8:00pm at the same location as well as from 9:30 to 10:30 Friday morning.
In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the Huntsman Cancer Institute in Alisa's name. https://donate.huntsmancancer.org/alisa-linton
This weekend also marks the tragic anniversary loss of both of Sister Jana White's parents (Issel Obituaries). They were young, exuberant and well known in our neighbourhood and their sudden loss was shocking but overshadowed by our desperate pleading for the saving of their grandson. In this case, the miracle of life was granted and who can forget the neighbourhood lining East Ranch Circle to welcome Cooper home.
This weekend, in a nod to the truth of eternal families, we are invited to figuratively line the streets again as the White family has invited the ward family to stand as witnesses to their sacred Celestial sealing ordinance this Friday, 22 May. Please dress Sunday best, arrive Draper Temple at 3:30 for the joyous 4pm sealing.
The truth is there is a God. The truth is He is mighty to save and heal. The truth is, we are here to have joy. The truth is...this was always the plan.
"Only the truth was strong enough"
HURRAH FOR ISRAEL!
