I'm doing my rounds in the temple and I escorted a brother to a locker so he could change and head into another area of the temple. As he gets into his locker area, he looks up and sees my name tag and remarks, "Hey, that's my name, only spelled a little different!" Sure enough, here is a picture of Joe Seeger and myself outside the temple while I am in my "outside the temple coat". Nice guy. We have a lot in common. He is serving as the Stake Young Men's Secretary, which, coincidentally, was the position I was in just prior to heading to Nauvoo on our mission. He lives in the Chicago area but is West of Kevin's area in the Chicago West Mission. Kevin is in the Chicago Mission. I took him on a tour of the temple and we talked a bit about family and things. I told him about some Seger genealogy that he could look into. I do have his contact info.
I had a great time introducing him as "brother Seeger" and watching several people with these really perplexed looks on their faces. It was great fun.
Just so you don't think this is all that odd an occurrence, Elder Jon met with this missionary while on his mission in Argentina a couple of years ago.
So, Segers, Seegers, Seagers are everywhere! Seger's unite! or however they choose to spell it....
