She did a magnificant job. In Seminary, I asked, "How was Rylie's talk? What did she do right?" We then pointed out how she did not waste people's time talking about how she was asked last week to speak, etc. The only story she told was about her own grandmother and was directly to the point. She closed with her testimony.
