In Washington state, we are in our eighth week of our governor’s “stay at home” order to help stop the spread of COVID-19. Personally, I try to look forward to better times, but there is a lot of pessimism out there. I’ve stopped reading certain news outlets because it seems the only information it publishes is dire predictions and dismal forecasts.

It’s likely something you will never forget. Overlooking the city, this marble sarcophagus has these words inscribed on the back:

Jennie Taylor remembers the evening of November 2, 2018, so well. It was the first time she had seen many of her college girlfriends in what seemed like forever. Their overnight reunion included plenty of laughs and shared stories about each other’s kids and husbands. Jennie was convinced that her mom was right when she encouraged her to leave her seven children and take an overnight trip with the girls a few hours from their Utah home.

On April 5, 2020, during the Sunday morning session of general conference, members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints watched a prerecorded video of President Russell M. Nelson in the Sacred Grove.
