J.K. Fancher Jr. (right) of Harrison
poses with a Lifetime Achievement Award
presented to him by the Mountain Meadows Association Board of
Directors. It
honors Fancher for his work in fostering reconciliation between all
parties involved
in the 1857 incident in which 120 members of a wagon train from
Arkansas were
murdered in Utah by Mormons. Fancher's son, Terry, who is the
president of the
Mountain Meadows Association, holds a cross from the 150th anniversary
ceremony
at the Mountain Meadows site. The Fanchers are standing in front of
the 1955 Mountain
Meadows Monument in Harrison, Arkansas. |
