Bee

Bee was born in a small town called Lovell, Wyoming.  She had 2 sisters and 2 brothers.  They didn't have an indoor bathroom or running water but they did have enough to eat cause they lived on a 160 acre farm.  Her dad was a farmer and rancher.

She used to sing duets with her sister and taught herself to yodel in the sugar beet field.  Her favorite childhood memory is when she would sit on the bank of the ditch and make doll furniture out of mud.  She would let it dry really hard and then paint it with scraps of house paint.

Bee had a blessing from a Stake Patriarch which said she would be the mother of a great posterity.  It took them 8 years to have their first child but ended up with four girls and one boy.  She has 34 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren.

Bee has served in many church callings in the junior sunday school and Relief Society and loved them all.  She and her husband served in San Paolo, Brazil, as the President of the missionary training center there from 1986 to 1989.
