Thank you Keith and Joan

March 30, 2016 Posted by Karen Huxter 2 Comments

Once more we are without the capable Keith and Joan.  They are missed but the good news is they will return again in the fall.  Yay.  Yay.  Y A Y !!!

I miss them as soon as they drive out the gate and start the count down to when they return.

A soft place to land

 

Joan and Sandra

We know that their time with their two precious grandsons, the rest of family members, friends, along with their motorcycle escapades, and of course golfing for Mr Kief will keep them happily going, and then some, until they join us again in the fall.

Bye Kief and Jon. Can’t blame you for looking so happy to leave.

Thank you for your work in all areas of the mission and especially with the children.

Amusing the kids

Thank you also to Mariah for sharing her spring break week with us here.  It was a busy and fun week.

Outside market in Verrettes

Always good to see people come and difficult to see them leave.  In this case it was especially sad for both Karena (Ti Mariah) and Mariah when Mariah had to leave again for Canada.

Mariah needs to leave during church service

 

Two sad hearts. Mariah and Karena (Ti Mariah)

 

Bye Mariah

Thanks Mariah for helping, and spending time, with the children.

Ti Mariah just came to tell me she misses Mariah

    Thanks from me to Joan and Keif too. I have seen first hand how important they are to the HATS Mission and what love, compassion, joy, fun, work, determination and laughter they bring to the job! Joan and Keif , you will be missed at HATS but you will be enjoyed by family and friends at home.
    Mariah, I know what fun,energy and love you bring to HATS when you arrive and what sad hearts you leave behind. Thank you for sharing your heart with them all.
