“When she learned that her husband was going to pass away, my great-grandmother was out irrigating in the fields. Being weighted down with sorrow, she prayed to Heavenly Father for the strength to continue and to bear her burdens. This example from my grandmother showed me what to do in difficult and trying times and has helped me draw close to her and also to my grandfather.”
