The Mary Fielding Smith statue will be placed at <a href=”http://www.thisistheplace.org/index.shtml”>This is the Place Heritage Park</a>. She is a life-sized, bronze statue located by her restored home in the Joseph F. Smith Memorial Grove. We plan to have a short program and a special unveiling on her birthday, July 21, 2003, at 7:00 PM. The members of the family are all invited to attend. There will be signs to follow so the family can drive into the village near the Grove and park. This will be a wonderful family night for all of us to come and pay tribute to one of the greatest pioneer women who ever lived.

The 200th Birthday Celebration of Hyrum Smith will be held on February 13, 2000 in the Assembly Hall on Temple Square at 7:00 p.m. Elder M. Russell Ballard will speak and there will be a segment aimed especially for children so this is a family affair. We need to get this info out to as many of Hyrum’s descendants as we can.
