 Wednesday afternoon we were happy to attend the Retirement Party for Dave Dillon - he has worked at the Family Domestic Court in Davis Country for 21 years.  Here are his five clerk's during those years - singing a fun song about him.  There were so many wonderful things said about Dave and his work ethic, patience, concern for the children in the families he had contact with, etc.

The Old Professor and the Judge!!  We only lived in Carbondale, Illinois for two years - and now feel like we went there so Dave could have contact with our family and join the Church.
