Notes |
- My name is David Aaron Stephenson. I am the son of David Elbert and An n H ancock Stephenson. My father is the son of John Junior Stephenson an d Cor al McKee Stephenson. I am so grateful that I was able to know my Gr eat Gr andpa McKee as a small boy. We lived in Salt Lake City and Salmo n Idaho w hile growing up, and would occasionally stop by as we passed th rough Hold en, Utah during those years. Great Grandma and Grandpa McKee w ere such ki nd people. I still remember the feeling of warmth in their ho me. I rememb er sitting on the large porch swing as a child. My sibling s and I loved t o swing in that large bench. I remember my mother teachin g me about Grea t Grandpa's wise council "If you can't buy it, you don' t need it." I hav e shared this wise council with others throughout my li fe.
I remember enjoying a large dinner one afternoon when we stopped by the i r home to visit. I was probably 6 or 7 at the time. Great Grandma McKe e s erved meat and potatoes and I particularly remember the white grav y i n a fancy looking gravy boat. I think that was the first time I had s ee n gravy served in such a nice looking dish. Great Grandma was so kin d an d was very happy that we were there.
I was named David after my father. He was named David after his Grandp a B urton "David" McKee. I named my first and only son David. It's grea t to k now that I was named after such great men and that the name live s on thro ugh my son and might possibly continue through his posterity a s well .
How blessed I am to have known this great man.
