One of my distributors is a large multi-national company. I flew to Dallas to meet the new US Dir of Sales yesterday. He noticed that my area code for my cell was 801 and asked if I was from Utah or just a transplant. He asked because he graduated from BYU. We shared that my business partner and I also went to the Y.
We finished our business and he asked how the people in Utah are handling the church's fall. He left soon after his mission 15 or so years ago and shared that his entire family is out and that none of his friends from the Y were still in. In his words "It's hard to imagine how anyone with a smartphone could stay."
The church used to keep guys like us. And frankly, losing guys like this fellow has to hurt.
