Rico in Blue

Rico did it!  He's now an official BYU graduate, making three in our family. And we got to be there to celebrate last weekend.  Elder Oaks' talk at commencement presented an interesting concept. He spoke of the 'mark' graduates have from attending BYU.  He said that the significance of the mark is two-fold; first, like a banner, it will be visible and it will have an effect on others.  'But the most important effect of the mark upon you today is not the signal it sends to others, but the influence it should have upon you'. It was inspiring to see Rico in the blue cap and gown. You're off to great things Rico :)
Congratulations!
