On
Saturday, January 19th, we
were invited by the Fanene Family to a celebration in honor of their father who
died about a year ago. When a person dies they have a celebration after
they have been gone for a year and they unveil the headstone. David
Penirose Sainila Fanene was an awesome musician and he passed his musical
talents onto his family. They had dinner and a program with lots of
dancing and singing. His band (which included a brother) played for the
event. It was such an honor the be invited.

One of the son's, Marvin is an NFL
football player. He built this home for his parents. It is known as
the "mansion" and when it was built, Brother Fanene said the third
floor was to be an apartment for the missionaries. The elders that are
lucky enough to live there are really blessed. There is actually two
rooms/each with a bathroom that could house missionaries - with a large sitting
room in between for their use.
