The following pictures were taken the Sunday before we left for home, it was the hardest thing that Sister Heck and myself did while we were in Zimbabwe, was to say Good-bye to our dearest friends.  Believe us when we say that a lot of tears were shed before we left.  They will always be dear to us and a place in our heart for the eternities.
