We meet our son-in-law

 About 18 months after they were married, Rex and Deb came to visit us at SABS. Deb had scared Rex by telling him that Mel was very strict and he had better mind his "P"s and "Q"s. So when we met them at the Airport he was dressed in a full suit, shirt, and tie. Of course he soon found out that Deb was just teasing him. Both Mel and I loved him from the beginning. When we got home, because the students had been away on vacation and were expected back in a day or two, we had to give our visitors the tiny room which was situated at the rear of the house. When I say "tiny" I mean that. It could scarcely hold their bed. But that was the best we could offer them. We spent the rest of the time talking, showing them around and just generally "catching up". I don't really recall all that we did, but we loved having them with us, and rejoiced that our girl had been so wise in her choice of a husband. Not only was he a Christian, but a wonderful preacher as well.
