A Surprise Farewell

Elder Inouye indicated that he and Sister Inouye would be leaving Hong Kong earlier than originally planned in September.  So, with just a few remaining Sundays before they leave, it was decided to surprise them with a farewell from the branch on the fast Sunday in August
 rather than waiting until September.
We later learned that they weren't really leaving earlier than planned.  It turns out that someone didn't have their facts straight.  Oh well!
Genevieve played a video she created from photos of moments 
with the Inouyes these past 18 months.  It was a nice tribute to them.
Sister and Elder Inouye briefly shared their feelings of serving a mission in HK,
and being a part of our Island 1st Branch.

Edna presented a going-away-cake to the Inouyes
Joy, Alma, Juliet, Lolita
Lea, S. Bodily, E. Bodily, Lorna
Christy Abagat, Marilee Page, Christine VanWagenen, Deborah Bodily
Part of our team in preparing and serving a spaghetti dinner for the branch.
I'm happy to say, it went well.
Sister Inouye is so loved, and will be greatly missed.
