Reuben Missionary Questionairre

For FHE last week, Emmeline and I prepared a questionnaire about Reuben for each person to fill out.  Some answers were silly and some were serious, but I'd like to preserve them.  This blog entry isn't one I plan to promote on my facebook page or tag so that people will find it in Google searches, but, if you are here, and you are interested, go ahead and read it.  For Reuben, the last few questions were about Emmeline, like, "What is your favorite memory about Emmeline?" So, remember that when you read his answers.  In order to remain authentic, I am usually keeping the same spelling and punctuation that each person used.
