Leaving on a Jet Plane

A wonderful family came to the airport to say goodbye. Elder Heimuli taught their daughter, and when he left Guayaquil to work in Jipijapa, he hoped her parents would follow her into the gospel. Eventually, they did!


Dad (Lakei) was somewhat of a star in Ecuador. No, most people had never heard of BYU. But they were amazed at the size of his enormous handshake which completely swallowed up Ecuadorians' tiny hands. At the airport, complete strangers approached him to shake his hand and take a picture, hahaha!
