Tyler has been in the Bishopric for the last 2 years with these amazing men. I always have a hard time when the bishop changes. Ever since we have been going back to church these past 14 years, we have been blessed with the most amazing Bishops, and Bishop Travis Perry is no exception. He has been there for our family through the most hardest time in our lives, with having to say goodbye to our sweet Makenzie. I will miss seeing the picture of you and Kenzie in the Bishops office. It always brought me joy every time I walked into the office.
Bishop Perry went at least once a week to the hospital to see Makenzie even if she didn't talk to him or was having a hard day he would just sit and rub her feet or just sit by her. He showed that love to everyone in our ward, and today was a very bitter, sweet day for our ward.
After him being the Bishop the last 5 years, today he and his counselors got released. Apparently, the Bishop couldn't look at me while he was bearing his testimony because I was crying, and he said, "I have to stop looking at Monica cause she is making me cry." Sorry Bishop, I have just come to love the person you are and how christ like you are to everyone. The next bishop has some big shoes to fill, but I know he will be just as great as all our other bishops we have had in the past.
I have also seen Tyler Madsen grow these past few years as being the 2nd counselor and sitting besides these two amazing men. I have witnessed Tyler become closer to our savior Jesus Christ and watched him get out of his comfort zone and be more of a people person and show love to those who need it.
I am grateful for the opportunity I had to be able to support Tyler these past couple of years and become closer to our savior as a family.
Last night, we had a BBQ with the bishop and all his counselors. He had the last 5 years and their families. It was such a perfect way to celebrate the last 5 years of friendship and service.
