Letter to home on April 26, 2015

We are here finally listening to conference. We are having a break between sessions and so I thought I would write you all. This has been a really good conference. I wrote down some questions to look for answers for. I've gotten some advice. I’m grateful that we have living apostles and prophets that can help us. It seems like a very common topic this conference is marriage and not procrastinating. I’m not sure what they are trying to say. :-) I really liked Elder Bednar’s talk about fear and Peter’s experience walking on water.

I think that this is probably the last handwritten letter you will get from me. It’s crazy that the time has gone already. I’ve been trying not to focus on it. I want to be able to work hard to the last day. All the same though, it is coming.

I really just want to thank you. The support, guidance, and encouragement has helped me so much. At all times I could remember your love and feel it lift me when I needed help. All I can do to repay you is make you proud. I hope I have and still will continue to.

A lot has changed. That’s all I can say. Serving a mission has saved me. There is no greater, best decision I have ever made. And that doesn't even begin to describe how I am now. I love you all. 

Thank you. See you soon.

Elder E. E. Buyers
