I am the eldest of eight children, born of goodly parents; Loyal Hastings, all around great Dad, disciple of Christ, fun grandpa, career USAF pilot and my mom, Janice Mendenhall, descendant of Mormon pioneers, tireless mom, amazing cook, terrific grandma. Until I was 29, I never lived anywhere longer than three years. Since then I have lived for 25 years in the same house in Las Vegas. I just celebrated my 31st wedding anniversary with Michele Christensen, a true saint who daily lives what she believes. She also shows each day how much she loves me. We have raised six wonderful children. I am truly blessed by my wonderful family.
I have tried to serve the poor and indigent for 23 years as a Deputy Public Defender here in Las Vegas. I have had great service opportunities nonstop during my life within the Mormon church, starting at age 19 with a two year mission to Samoa. I have also enjoyed serving with youth in the Boy Scouts. Recently I enjoyed a two day, overnight reenactment of a Mormon Pioneer trek pulling handcarts with 200 teenagers. I look forward to retirement with my wife, serving a mission together wherever called, and enjoying some traveling and our family.
