It is really amazing the people you meet in the Missionary Training Center!!!! We were speaking with another couple who are here training for their mission in Japan, Glenn and Melody Rowe. Elder Nelson happened to notice that their last name seemed familiar. So he asked if they had any relatives that had ever lived in Virginia (Duh....what are the chances of that?) Elder Rowe replied that his brother Mark was from there. We discovered that it was the very same Mark Rowe who we had been friends with and served in the church with about 24 years ago. Elder Rowe contacted Mark and told him he was training in the MTC with the Nelsons and asked if he remembered us. I guess response was something like...how could I forget Ken Nelson. He than forwarded this old picture which was taken at Mark's birthday celebration all those years ago. Yes, this is Ken Nelson decorated as Mark Rowe's birthday cake. Your past always seems to catch up with you!!! Yes, the candles are really lit and I now wonder if shaving cream is flammable. Ken's response to seeing this was, "you can't prove that's me." What do you think?
The eyes and devilish glint all speak Ken Nelson.
