Salt Lake Cematary

We go out to UT every summer for 2 1/2 weeks. This time around I wanted to do some touristy things. I had been out to UT several times before Ben and I got married. So I have done a lot of the UT stuff. Well I had never been to The Salt Lake Cemetery where most of the Prophets and apostles are buried.
We went on a Sunday after church.

Now I had never been there, and I thought that all of the prophets (and their wives) that were buried there would all be in a section together. Why wouldn't they? In a lot of cemeteries military men and women are buried in a section together. Well, I was wrong. They were spread out.





Howard W. Hunter.

Spencr W. Kimball

Harold B. Lee


Gordon B. Hinckley

David O. McKay

This was an early apostle


John Taylor

Heber J. Grant

George Albert Smith


 
Except Joseph F. Smith(top)
and
Joseph Fielding Smith(bottom)
Who were just a few apart.


Wilford Woodruff
These are just the few graves that we saw.
It was so amazing to see this--  to see the past prophets that I never got to see or hear in my life. You know how things are real. But, when you do something like this it makes it even more real.
