"We all travel the same river, the river of Life. The source is the same, as is the destination. Only the navigator who handles the rapids, the stormy waters, the serene inlets - for pause and rest - before the confluence, has it in his power to make this interlude bring a resurgence of dismay and discouragement or hopeful faith and confidence, situations which are determined by the skill, wisdom, desire and direction of the navigator.The shifting sands, the changing water, move away too soon and too soon are forgotten. Therefore the resting places consigned to those who have completed this eventful voyage are hereby given our consideration, and in some instances we have included a brief account of the voyager. It is our intent, in so doing, to express our gratitude for their having shown us the way, and provided for us a foundation upon which we can build. Hopefully, we will strive to leave such a legacy when we are numbered among those who have gone before." [Author] This chapter discusses different burial sites in Missouri and Utah.
