We named Tauna after this cute little 6-year-old girl I knew on my mission in Livingston, Montana in 1966, Tauna Lochridge. I told her I wanted to come back in 12 years to marry her. Well, Linda and I met first and and we were married when Tauna was only 10 years old. I hope I didn't break her heart. So Linda and I decided to name our third daughter after Tauna. Here is Tauna Lochridge beginning her mission to Catania, Italy in December 1981 with our cute little 3-year-old Tauna. We love both of our Tauna's.
