At the first meeting there was a note posted on the door from "Christian Community", saying that if the Mormons continued meeting, they would burn the house and kill the missionaries (no, I never told my mom this!)<br />In 1978, I returned to do my post-grad work at UT and had one of the great honors of my life to be asked to be one of the first speakers in the newly built chapel in LaFollette.larryco_noreply@blogger.com
