THERE WAS a bit of a problem he had not perceived. per-ceived. In one of his moments of contemplation, he realized he needed a wife to care for him; prepare his meals: run his errands; and answer his phone. He acquired the wife, but this is where he failed, because, he should have known that the wife must have a home, clothes, she too must eat. and many other expenses. ex-penses. He has handled this setback well for 46 years. (Anniversary was last Friday). You are all acquainted with Noall and know him as he is today.

He always has time listen, to learn, and also to--talk. He loves the out-of-JJ doors. His ranch has fulfilled many dreams and is a balancing rod for the pres- sures and tensions of his medical world. He is extremely proud of his family-: from Helene on down: and he likes to help to achieve in anything worthwhile. He paid for the plans for the city swimming pool because he " saw the necessity. That got it started. That is why he has worked so hard to get more Kiwanis members too. That is why he spent so much of his life in ;' getting the medical center which we have in Layton. :; When everyone else gave up. ; he found another avenue to : explore. He is still applying pressure to make the on-off ramp on 1-15 a reality. HIS MIND is always open for new and better ways. He is never bored. What more can 1 say than to say that I love the man, Noall Tanner. |
