A Visit from Rowen's cousin and his wife

On Monday afternoon, Wes and Joan Reiff came to see us. They live in Aztec, NM. He is one of Rowen's cousins. Rowen is the youngest Reiff cousin and he is 50. His oldest cousin, Lucy, died recently, and she was in her 80s. Wes and Joan are in their 70s but they have a lot of health issues that made it a particular blessing that they were able to make this trip to Colorado to see some of their family again. Wes was an only child so cousins are very important to him. We enjoyed visiting with them and praying together. We hadn't seen them since 2002, and may not get to see them again this side of heaven, but we were glad for this opportunity. They went on their way back to NM on Tuesday morning after staying the night with us.
