The program on January 29 was Classification Talks by Britton Allison and Elizabeth Kringel.
Britton grew up in Parker and Fort Collins and after High School attended Metro State. He decided to transfer to a small Bible College and completed a seminary program. While there he met his wife Kerstin, got married, and completed his degree in Bible and ministry at a Christian college in Oklahoma. Kerstin is a Cardiac nurse at PSL in Denver. They had a goal to do international mission work and did short term missions in Africe, Peru, and Brazil.

After returning to Colorado, he started work with Edward Jones as a financial advisor. Britton and Kerstin have two children, Elijah and Matthias.
Elizabeth was born in St. Louis, after several moves settled in suburbs north of Chicago where she lived for 45 years. Graduated from St Mary's College of Notre Dame with a major in art. Initially worked in advertising, followed by teaching art. Married, had children and settled into volunteering at school and church. After a divorce in the early 80s she sold real estate. Upon marrying her second husband Kris, who had two sons, along with her two sons moved to Durango where they lived a relaxed fun filled life upon Kris' retirement.
Horseback riding, golf, tennis, fishing and hunting were among the things Elizabeth, Kris and family enjoyed.
In 2012, because of Kris' declining health, they moved to Denver where two of their grown sons lived.
