Our oldest son served a mission in Oregon, but shortly after returning became inactive and a few years later had his name removed from the records of the Church. This was very disappointing to us as parents. Our other two sons never served missions, they both have drug addiction issues and one was diagnosed with a debilitating mental illness.
