 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

great grandchildren.
