"Stories on the Sabbath" - Time to Vote

Many of you know that my maiden name is ROMNEY and I'm very proud of that fact!  As this election year has progressed, people have asked me if I am related to Mitt Romney and the answer is a resounding YES!  My father is George Lee Romney and he is first cousins with Mitt's dad, George Romney.  They both are also first cousins to Marion G. Romney, Camilla Eyring Kimball, and Henry W. Eyring.  Our common ancestor is Miles Park Romney.  (See pictures below)

Everytime I hear Mitt speak, my heart swells with love and gratitude for him and his family's sacrifice for our country.  My mother is one of his biggest fans and the only regret I have is that my dear father is not alive to be "rooting" his cousin's son on to become the first Mormon President of the United States!
If you were wondering who I am voting for, I guess it's not a question anymore.  I encourage you to exercise your right to vote this coming week.  One vote can make a big difference!

                                                                

"To be valiant in the testimony of Jesus is to take the Lord's side on every issue. It is to vote as he would vote. It is to think what he thinks, to believe what he believes, to say what he would say and do what he would do in the same situation. It is to have the mind of Christ and be one with him as he is one with his Father. "

- Bruce R. McConkie, CR, 1974, Oct: p. 46

Always vote for principle, though you may vote alone, and you may cherish the sweetest reflection that your vote is never lost.

--John Quincy Adams
