The Importance of Grief

Sherylin Haukroft: Joseph and Hiram Smith's mother described her horror at seeing their bodies. She says Lucy Mac Smith almost seems to hear the sons say, "Mother, don't wait for us" Years later in 1928, nearly half a century after Emma Smith passed away, her body was disentered along with the bodies of Joseph and HirAm. They were re-entered alongside one another in Nauvoo in a grave site that tens of thousands visit each year.
