Show EDWIN CANNON ' ED" WI D R B R 22 2 1 BEC: Yeah. I imagine that s great. Well all right 1 t m v y u int th ar. Let s see, you were- NED: Well, I went on a mission as soon as I could after I graduat d from high school (laughs) to placate my mother. Except I'd always planned on going on a mission and I was going to go to Hawaii but Pearl Harbor came and they changed that and they sent me to the Southern States, which was headquartered in Atlanta. And I went out and served for twenty-eight months in that mission. BEC: Now, were mission calls at that time three years or two years? NED: No. They were two years and they didn't have any extension on four years. Sisters were still a year-and-a-half. Very few lady elders-that's what I call them. I loved lady elders when I was mission president. They were the best. Although, the ones that were the worst were lady elders, too. BEC: Oh, is that right? NED: Oh, yeah. Fighting over their mush bowl or some great issue, you know. But anyway, I went and enjoyed that Southern States mission, which included five states: South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama and Mississippi. And I got around in those. BEC: NED: Did you get around to all five states during the time you were there? Yeah. And it was very enjoyable. And then I came home and the war was going then. In fact, the war had started when I went out. I was one of the last missionaries to go out. And the missionaries that followed me were old, old dads. Older. Most of my companions were grandpas. It was like sleeping with Grandpa. BEC: (laughs) 17 |
