Martha Ann Henderson Day


My maternal great-great grandmother walked barefoot from Nauvoo to the Salt Lake Valley, arriving in 1847.  She lived a life of faith and sacrifice and is a great example of handwork and determination. Her obituary says she met and knew the first seven presidents of the church!  Hope you have a wonderful Easter!

Thomas Alexander "Lex" Lewis



A short story about my Grandfather, Lex Lewis.  He taught me some things that I am grateful for.....like how to bet on horses and dogs (just kidding).  The twists and turns for our lives are not always understood at the time - but having faith and hope helps get us through times of trials.  I am grateful for the examples of my ancestors.
