Thank You Note From President Barker
Dear Friends in the Highland East and Highland West Stakes,
I wish you all could have been there as Nan and I were presented with a marvelous book containing amazing pictures,
heartfelt memories and spirit-filled testimonies to commemorate the time period when it was my privilege to serve as the
President of Highland Stake. We were so touched. The book, and the Spirit it carries, is such a powerful reminder of how
richly the Lord has blessed us. We are so grateful for you and this marvelous memory.
For those now in the East stake, thank you so very, very much and we miss you! For those in the West stake, thank you so
very, very much and we are so grateful to continue serving with you!
Ammon, from the Book of Mormon captured my feelings: "I cannot say the smallest part which I feel." (Alma 26:16). That
is the truth! My very best, President Daniel A. Barker
