Grandpa was an adventerous soul and would drag Grandma here and there. She was a city slicker from Salt Lake City, and she lived in Eureka, Escalante. Some of her grandchildren thought she was an actual pioneer because of her experiences. Grandpa took her on an around the world trip, and although she said she feared many of her experiences, she probably wouldn't have traded them in for anything. It made her who she was.
Joseph was willing to go anywhere and do anything. He dedicated his life to the Church, and his testimony was strong. He often said that he and grandma sat down when they were first married and said, that either we are Mormon all the way or not at all. They were Mormon all the way and passed on their faith to their children and grandchildren and their posterity.
