   Robert E. Ostrander was born in Alma, Michigan in 1944.  He was introduced to the Reorganized Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints by a friend in 1958 and was baptized in 1960.  He married Karen Schofield, of Creston, Iowa in 1965, just two days before leaving for military service in Viet Nam.  They currently live in Independence and have two children, Tammy of Independence and David of Grain Valley.  They also have two grandchildren, Brian and Sarah.  Brother Ostrander retired from the Department of Homeland Security September 1, 2006, after 30 years of service in the Federal Government.  Brother Ostrander was ordained to the office of Deacon in 1965, and Elder in 1974.  On September 23, 2000, he was ordained a High Priest and set aside as an Apostle in the Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.  Both Brother and Sister Ostrander are converts to the Church and, until August, 1999 when his mother was baptized, were the only members of their respective families in the Church.  Both Brother and Sister Ostrander have strong testimonies of the validity of the Church and its work.  They look forward to this new opportunity to serve the Lord as a member of the First Presidency during the exciting times that lie ahead as the Church continues to strive toward Zion!

  I was Born April 17, 1927 to parents who loved all six (6) of their children, and gave them a home in which they were challenged to become independent thinkers, and always reminded us of how blessed we were, living in a free country with the many privileges we enjoyed.

I am a second generation "Latter Day Saint" my Mother Hilda Morgan Dyer was a Methodist then a friend introduced her to the R.L.D.S. doctrine and she soon became a member, My Father at the time did not have membership in any faith, but he too became a member of the R.L.D.S. Church.

My Father was called to the ministry and served in the office of "Priest"

I was baptized and confirmed a member on April 21, 1935.

Both parents are now gone to their reward.

The family gathered to Independence, ("Center Place") in the fall of 1942 after the death of my Father. I enlisted in the Merchant Marines and received my discharge from the United States Coastguard August 13, 1945.

Married Ruth Mae Julia Willoughby April 22, 1950, three children were born,
  Samuel R. Dyer III,
  Lynn Christen Dyer,
  Daniel J. Dyer.
All live now in Independence.

My beloved went to her reward May 16, 1998.

All our children have children, and I enjoy the company of five grandchildren, and six great grandchildren.

I retired from A.T.T. November 01, 1985 as a manager of "Installation and Repair."

My experience in administration ministry came from being an assistant scout master, a scout master and neighborhood commissioner for the "Boy Scouts of America". I was involved with scouting for 15 years.
