Remembrances |

“ Eva and Jim Pugh – A Remembrance ” - Don Beck“Jim is my great uncle. My Grandpa (his brother) just passed away and they were very close before Jim joined the Temple. My dad has Jim’s Bible. I’ve never seen a picture of my great uncle until today, and he resembles my Grandpa so much. Rest In Peace, Uncle Jim. ” - Jessica Pugh“Jim was my grandma's brother. Her name was Anna Verlee Pugh Riney. I remember vividly when this happened, and how much it devastated her. She was never the same after that. She never believed that he willingly drank the poison, but that he was shot, trying to escape. He was always a very religious, and God-fearing man, and a Pentecostal preacher and my mom said that whenever he would see her when she was little, he would always tell her to say her prayers. So very sad for all involved. ” - Kim Notestein Hixson |
