Community remembers the Provo Tabernacle

By Jenn Cardenas
May 08, 2012 12:00 AM
In Provo during the late 1940s, Grandma Jones would give a treat to any young boy who helped her carry her groceries the few blocks to her home. Jones' husband, A. Willis, was the unofficial historian of the city. Their small front room contained bookshelves lined with scrapbooks that contained the town's past, a town that at that time was one where the income gap was virtually nonexistent. Kids walked to school and the Provo Tabernacle stood as one of the pinnacles of the community.
