Le Roy writes! am laboring as a missionary !or the LDS church here in Denmark. I might add, of course, ''the best mission in the church". At the present time I am working in a very picturesque and quiet little Danish town which by the way, is the birthplace of my father, Stanley A Rasmussen. I have had the pleasure of visiting many of my relatives whom I've never seen be· fore. It may interest you to know that several years ago I was preeeded here by ene of my relatives, Leon Rasmussen, of Jrfidvale, who also labored in Randers as a mis~ sionary. I have beard many of our saints and relatives mention him and have also seen several pictures of him. There are several elders work· ing in this town--one of which is my next-door neighbor, from San· dy-Elder Gerald C Webb. In fact, be and I are buying this subscription between us. In closing, I would like to say how very much we have always enjoyed reading The Sentinel, and about the goings on at home. I really miss reading it. Perhaps you could print a little "Hello" and best regards to all our friends and loved ones from Elders LeRoy W Rasmussen and Gerald C Webb. * HONOR ROLL * New Automobile Service Station Opens • • ACCESSORIES Arnold Troester, former owner and operator o£ the Midvale Garage, has built the building shown above next to his old place of business, which is now the local Ford headquarters.
