Hi all,

Grandpa Dixon told me this story of when President Uchtdorf and his wife had dinner at Grandma and Grandpa's home in Provo years ago.

When on their mission in Germany, Grandpa worked as mission financial secretary and Grandma was mission secretary, so they spent most of their time in the mission home. At the time, President Uchtdorf was the local stake president and he would drop by the mission home quite often to talk to the mission president and always exchanged a few words with Mom and Dad. They thought he was a fine man.

After Grandma and Grandpa (now Oma and Opa) returned home, Grandpa ran into President Uchtdorf in the BYU bookstore. He was in the area on church business, traveling with his wife. Grandpa invited them to dinner and they accepted.

When they came to dinner, Sister Uchtdorf told Grandma, "We knew we had found your home when we saw the curtains. Grandma had beautiful lace curtains--the kind Germans use--in her windows. They had a very pleasant evening.
