TEMPLE WORK: I went to the AZ Temple to do the iniatory work for Nora and three other Tyner and Lamb ladies on 3 May 1990. I had submitted their names for my family file. The temple worker couldn't find the file; when she finally located it, all the work had been performed except the sealings. I did seal Nora and Maggie Mae to Grandma and Grandpa Tyner and felt a special spirit with me. I was greatly disappointed not to be able to do the other work for Grandmoie.
