I admired their selfless concern for the community and their ability to make sane decisions. They modeled for me what I hoped for myself: to live my life motivated by love and dedicated to serving others. They were different ages, but they shared a common trait: joyful charity. Yes, they clarified issues, but more importantly, they had a vibrant spirituality rooted in love of God. They cared about me so consistently that when they shared advice, I knew that it came from a place of deep wisdom. Knowing them made me a better woman and inspired me in the various roles to which obedience called me: teacher, administrator, campus minister, and professor.
