Dear Friends,
Robert and Phee Crosland recently suffered a devastating fire resulting in a total loss of their home and all personal belongings. This is the second tragic loss of this nature the Crosland family has experienced in the past 10 years. We acknowledge the profound influence and positive impact the Crosland family has had on so many members of our community.

Many of you have offered love, prayers, and financial support to the Crosland family during this difficult time. We continue to have concerned community members ask how they can help or assist the Crosland family.

If you would like to assist,there are many ways to help:
•••a bank account has been established at the local Preston Alta Bank called “Crosland Assist Fund” for anyone wishing to make a contribution
•••Checks can be sent to Crosland Assist Fund 7063 E Highway 36 Preston, Idaho 83263-4203
•••Venmo Phee Crosland -Crosland. (She has a picture of her daughter as a little girl-Celina has a red shirt on)

Thank you for your concern, love, and prayers for this amazing family. We are so grateful and blessed to live in a community that cares and helps in times of need and tragedy.
Sincerely,

Preston Idaho East Stake Presidency
