Dear Beloved Brazilian Missionaries,
You are invited to join the Bangerter family in a celebration of
Geraldine Hamblin Bangerter’s 89th birthday. We are grateful for her
health and strength at this time. We have planned a season of
celebrating rather than a single day. She would love to see any of you
who are able to visit and would also be happy with a phone call.
Mother is still bright in her spirit and mind although she often uses
a walker to get around. She has made a remarkable recovery from her
stroke nearly two years ago. To commemorate good doctor reports she
went to Disneyland with Duella and her family after Christmas and had
a wonderful time riding around on Dad's motorized wheelchair.
Celebration season: Sunday February 24th through Sunday March 3rd.
Open House times:
Sunday, Feb. 24 2-8 PM
Monday, Feb. 25 12-8 PM
Sunday, March 3 2-8 PM
If you would like to come at another time during the week, call Geri
at 801.756.4236. or 801.897.0554 (cell)
Location: Bangerter Farm, 542 S. Alpine Hwy., Alpine, UT 84004
For your information:
Geraldine’s recently printed biography, titled Welcome the Task, will
be available for purchase for $15.00 per copy for anyone who drops by
the house. She would love to sign your copy. She’s very excited
about this warm and charming full-color, beautifully designed 320 page
memoir. Her granddaughter Heidi Shin has worked with her for over a
decade to transcribe interviews, search through journals and letters,
take photos and assemble artifacts. You will especially appreciate the
in-depth chapter about her time in Brazil. If you are not able to
visit for her birthday, but would like to purchase the book for
yourself and your family members, call Julie Beck, 801.518.9994, Heidi
Beck Shin 801.318.2043, or Cory Bangerter 801.885.3628. Or, email:
Much love to you,
Julie B. Beck
