“My angel mother, Jasmine Bennion Arnold, clearly understood
her role to help in the rescue of our Heavenly Father’s wounded or lost sheep,
including her own children and grandchildren. What a marvelous role
grandparents can play in the lives of their grandchildren. Mom was usually
assigned to visit teach those struggling with their faith, the less-active and
part-member families; however, her flock included several others that no one
had assigned her to visit. Generally her visits were not just once a month, as
she quietly listened, ministered to the sick, and gave loving encouragement.
The last several months of Mom’s life, she was homebound, so she spent hours
writing them letters, expressing her love, bearing her testimony, and lifting
those who came to visit.” - Elder Mervyn B. Arnold
