Lori's Minute

Roasting Dr. John?

This is the first I heard of the roast and here the day is almost over. What could I possible say about the man you guys already know so well? I know he had THREE bishops at his retirement party (and he is not fond of bishops).

It was kind of cool to have a father-in-law as a pastor who could marry us where ever we wanted and baptize our children.

He really loves his model trains but has no desire to ride on a train.

He plays canasta really well.

His kids have fond memories of him reading stories to them, cross counrty skiing and going camping all over the country.

Now he has left his home of over thirty years to be closer to his grandkids.

You get the idea of the kind of guy he is....but you already knew that, didn't you?
