The Big Day. Hugs, Loves, and Goodbyes!

We want to thank ALL those who came out to bid farewell to Elder Fotu.

There were many who came from near and far

to give offer their support and well wishes.

Although there were some who couldn't be with is in person, you were felt in spirit

and we thank you all for your love and strength!

Thank you to the many families who have opened your homes

to Garrett over the years.

Thank you for feeding him, and loving him as your own.

He has been blessed beyond measure with great friends

who have come from great parents.

It truly takes a village to raise a child

and we have been blessed with a wonderful village,

which has raised up a young man ready to serve the Lord.

Big Thank You to the WONDERFUL Hanneman family

for opening their home after both Elder Fotu's and Elder Hanneman's

farewell talks.

Elder Hanneman is going to be and amazing missionary

and will bless the lives of many as he serves in Tahiti.

The food was great, the friends were plenty, and the smiles were contagious :)

Here are a few pictures from the wonderful day.....

As a Family we will keep this blog updated as best we can

as a way for those who may want to follow Elder Fotu's new journey 

over the next few years.

Please feel free to share all your thoughts with us

and we will do our best to pass those on to Elder Fotu.

Much Love,

The Fotu's
