love was conditional.... if it was the case with him , then how about those i had less affection for and trust in ?.

I was working on my car in the factory, bld. 1 at Brooklyn Bethel New York on friday Oct. 31 1973, when all hell broke loose, the fire alarm in bld. 4 went off at about 9:30. The night watchman could find nothing. Monday we were all coming back from lunch, I was taking passengers up the east freight elevator when we saw fire trucks behind bld. 4. There to our surprize, they were taking the stiff dead body of James Olsen out of the bushs. Tom Combs {overseer of 4th job press} said "he MUST have done something REALLY bad to have killed himself!" Norm Brecky {overseer of the 5th floor ink room} said "I'm glad he jumped off the back of bld. 4, we don't need the publicity" --------DEAD and already judged! James Olsen had jumped to his death. The Thursday before Oct. 30th I saw him on my elevator, fighting back the tears, "whats wrong?" I asked. He said "he just couldn't take in any more and left bethel a week ago, he was A.W.O.L and went home---------and told his parents. They said "You are a reproach to us the family, and the organization---- and you wiil be going back!" They called Max Larsen (the factory overseer) and begged for another chance for their son. -----------Well after 2 hours in Max's office telling him what a disapointment he was to his family, he left, the loneliest person on the planet. With another chance? "well you only got 3 years 6 months left".-------- I got problems of my own, I thought.------"You will know them ----by their love"-----------I Keith Casarona along with everyone at bethel-- KILLED James Olsen---with my/our APATHY-----I can still see his face as he walked out of my elevator.

who holds the world record for the most disfellowshipings [ an reinstatments] in a single life time?.

i knew of one poor person charleen moss (roy baty's sister) who did it seven times.

she was a classic damed if i do, damed if i don't.

Was New Boy

DING.... How did she do it that many times....Well your right it takes many years sitting at the back of the hall each time.

Her secret....she changed congos everytime. The new people felt sorry for her and after 2-3 years they would "forgive" her.

Plus a couple of times she would marry the worldly guy she screwed....and bring them "in"....so she got points for bringing in new converts too....lol
