Hello again friends.
This month’s post is a little film we made about my grandfather, Elmer Carling, who was one of the first Utah Highway Patrolmen. It’s also about the spirit of human kindness.
I wrote the script based on published interviews and family lore, did Elmer’s voice, and with lots of help from Apple, Harley Davidson, and a bunch of relatives and friends, we made it happen. THANKS !
We’ve put it on our web site, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1J4mlmvOHkg, and also attached a QR Code to Elmer’s headstone, so that next time you’re at the Fillmore City cemetery you can view the video on your phone or tablet.
Things we now take for granted, like paved roads, snowplows, rest stops, guard rails, ambulance service, emergency rooms, morgues(!), places to eat and stay, police radios, and 911 service, had to start somewhere. This is the story of how it all began.
Hope you enjoy.
Duane
