When strangers found out Bruce was a Mormon, the first question they had was often, "So, how many wives do you have?"

"Four," was his stock answer, just to shock them. "But only one at a time, same as you." And if they still weren't able to find their tongue, he might add, "And twelve children."

Then if they didn't say, "What were you thinking?" they usually tried to recover by joking, "What's Thanksgiving like at your house?"

"A whole lot of pies."

Sometimes funny sometimes poignant, Bruce and Chlo 's story will leave you wondering about the possibilities of love and family and eternity.
