oldie, but a goodie


meet my great grandfather, Eugene Taylor Whitaker; born November 24, 1900 in Salt Lake City, Utah.  he is the grandson of John Taylor, one of the presidents of the LDS church.  i never knew him personally, but i remember hearing stories about him from my grandfather (his son).  one of the things i love most about this picture is how alike my grandfather, also Eugene, looks like his father.

That's a great picture and he looks a lot like Grandpa and Great-uncle Ralph. I wish I knew him but he died just a few years before you and I were born. Too bad I don't remember the stories Grandpa would say about him.
