Buchanan Building

This weekend was a special weekend for the members of the church in Buchanan as well as for mom and I. The new Buchanan building was dedicated Saturday Aug 5, 2006. I was able to dedicate the building. Something else made it very special for me. One hundred years ago at this time the saints in Wellsville, Utah were building the Wellsville tabernacle. Grandfather Evan Richard Owen was the bishop in Wellsville. He had been appointed to be the chairman of the building committee. The building was dedicated in 1907. An interesting fact about the date Aug 5 (dedication date for Buchanan)..... it is the 100th birthday of Grandpa Ezra Benson Owen, my dad, born August 5th 1906.
