Many decades ago my family would boast that a family member had not only been a temple president, but had been president of the salt lake temple.
With maybe 10 temples at the time, it was a rare thing to have a temple president in your family.
Add to that the mystic stories of temple presidents meeting Satan himself and rebuking same as he tried to bar members from entering the temple. And the temple president seemed almost like an apostle.
Now with hundreds of temples and the folklore of old disavowed, is there any prestige to the position?
