Show "This is President McKay," Sue "about had a heart attack." President McKay was going to Scotland and couldn't accommodate the bishopric's request. Later, however, they did go to Salt Lake City to meet with the President. "He came out in the hallway. He was a very tall man, very stately," remembers President Little. The prophet asked, "Where have we met before?" President Little had never personally met him, but President McKay insisted that they had known each other before. "It was a powerful experience," said President Little. At the time of his release as stake president, 11 March 1981, the stake was divided and Morgan North Stake was organized. Three months later he was ordained a Patriarch in the Morgan Utah Stake. His grandfather, James Richard Rawle, had also been a patriarch in the Morgan Stake. On Sunday, 4 July 1982, he was set apart as a sealer in the Ogden Temple by President Gordon B. Hinckley in the church office building in Salt Lake City. He is now serving as supervisor of the sealing department. He has served on several committees for the development and growth of Morgan City and County. He has been secretary of the Morgan County Fair since 1960. During his work for the United States government, he attended classes at both Weber State College and the University of Utah. President Little enjoys sports of all kinds. During his school years, he participated in field and track. Later baseball and basketball became a big part of his life as he played on county teams. Now he plays golf. He loves to work with the soil, and every year he grows a beautiful garden. Now, as time permits, he can be found in his wood-working shop, turning out objects made from all kinds of hard wood that he collects. Each phase of his life has been important to him. His devotion to serve his Father in Heaven, and "do it" to the best of his ability, has always been utmost in his mind. He is a man full of love, understanding, and great compassion for all those with whom he ass<x:iates. Source: Information was provided by Keith Little and his wife, Faye Donna, |
