A SAMPLING OF POETRY
Mom & Dad had the opportunity to be at Grandpa's poetry readings, one in Utah and one in California, to which many of Grandma and Grandpa's life long friends were invited. We thought some of the rest of the family would appreciate a sampling of those evenings. Please keep in mind there is a bit of background noise, occasional coughing, etc... Hopefully you will appreciate Grandma Cornwall's wonderful gift and Grandpa's love for her.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A YOUNG MOTHER
Many noble mother's (e.g. C. Frandsen, J. Broberg....) have made it clear that as young mothers they looked to the style, cheerfulness and apparent ease that Lenore Cornwall raised her 9 children. Lenore was at the same time a stellar Laurel teacher, Relief Soc. President and/or Road Show writer/director. This impressed upon them they could do it too. This writing shares the insight that even Lenore Cornwall had her challenging days. (FYI - "Enemy entrenched territory" is a quote from C.S. Lewis.)

What a great tribute. I am so glad that this is documented. I feel so grateful that my children have such a noble and righteous ancestors. I am thankful that Grandpa Cornwall took the time to put these volumes together and that he is willing to share. I am looking forward to the time when I will be able to meet Grandma Cornwall. I know that I am one of those who have been blessed by her righteous influence.
