Dick Oyler is a dedicated saint, father, and husband. He was raised farming in Northern Utah where had many exciting and unique experiences as a boy. He also was taught, from an early age, that hard work would get you where you want to go. That later led him to attend college and dental school, serve a mission in New Zealand, and met and marry his incredible wife, Reta. Together they raised seven children and have now been married for 60 years. He spent his career working as a dentist which, along the way, led them to Samoa and later to Tonga as a missionary. He now serves as a sealer in the Meridian, Idaho Temple and continues to serve the Lord, as he has throughout his life.
