Enjoying Father's Day

After a grueling 2 months of cleaning and packing and moving in Maryland by myself, it seemed like paradise coming out to Utah to be with my family. Sunday, June 16, was a very fulfilling day for two reasons. Our grandson, Blake Lin, was blessed by his father, Henry, in Sacrament Meeting at the Chinese Ward. A couple of our Montgomery Branch family friends, the King's and the Baxter's, attended the blessing. After church, we enjoyed a quiet dinner in our condo with the children and little Blake. Cousin Joseph and his dad joined us for dinner. Then we had a fun time taking photos. My children gave me a framed collage of photos and reasons why they loved Dad. My dearly beloved gave me a Granddad teeshirt, which I proudly display. This is one of the best Father's Day celebrations I can remember. Thanks, family!

Happy Holidays 2024

2024 was Ben's first full year of retirement from full-time federal government service. However, he decided to continue teaching engineering classes part-time at the local Montgomery College and fulfilled a dream this fall in teaching a math class. He picked up pickle ball, worked on family history, and started other projects. This year Li-Fang served as a counselor in the Relief Society Presidency at church and coordinated almost weekly activities for the women. Among these were rehearsals for line dance, social dance, and Latin dance. She is still having fun teaching private piano to more than a dozen students and art and sewing at VisArts. In the summer, we visited our children in Utah and returned to Taiwan. We are grateful for life and its many beautiful blessings. Merry Christmas from the Lin's! Life is good; kids are growing… In January, Trey is going to Primary and Blake will be going to Young Men's! Grace is still everyone’s frie...

Happy Holidays 2023

中文版在英文版的下面 ↓↓↓ Dear family and friends, This year, many in our family had the opportunity to visit Taiwan. 2023 for our family included the newest baby, the passing away of a matriarch, and a blissful retirement. Li-Fang and I now have 6 beautiful grandchildren. We are grateful for family relations and blessings. Happy new year! We really enjoyed the visits from our two older daughters and their children. After Megan also came home for a month, we commenced a cross-country drive to Utah and California. We visited my brother, Tim, and his family, and San Francisco. Then we flew to Taiwan for a 2-week around-the-island tour, in which we visited over 100 people in over 50 places. By the way I retired from federal government service. While I do miss the amazing opportunities at NIST and the wonderful friends I made there, I am relishing my retirement, still teaching part-time at Montgomery College, keeping busier than before with more service, physical, and social a...

Christmas in Utah

This Christmas we decided to fly Breeze Airlines from Dulles Airport to Provo, UT. And it was a breeze. We were able to see Grace performance her dance. Afterwards, she and her siblings had a photo op with Santa. We also were able to attend Sofia's Christmas concert at school. Can you see Sofia? Our long-awaited family group photo at the Utah State Capitol turned out beautifully despite the cold. Thanks, Veronica, for taking the photos. We are grateful for the time we had to spend time with our family during Christmas and New Years Eve.
