My brother just sent us siblings this link. It's a small world. No wonder Hinckley sent condolences in a letter to my family when Zola our grandmother died. They were classmates.

Strange times were the 20s.

I'm 62 and none of my classmates have been called into high positions in either religion. I only have over 500 classmates.

And interesting how lax on polygamy Hinckley was. There was I think much sympathy for the devils of polygamy when Hinckley was a prophet.

I didn't really know my grandfather well but my father was very charming before his dementia. I heard his father was very charming as well and he was well liked. His son Warren never was from what I heard. He used soft spoken spiritual fear more than persuasion.

I wonder if Rulon and Gordon were ever friends. From what my grandmother told my siblings everyone at LDS High School knew each other well.
