At 2:43 a.m. this morning, fire crews were called to the scene of the Provo Tabernacle. They have been fighting the fire since then and probably will be all day. What a tragedy. They say in the news that they won't know the cause for another couple of days. I am so hoping it was an accident and not arson. The fire has gutted the tabernacle so far and they don't know if it can be restored. I am so sad. I have so many good memories of the Provo Tabernacle. Conferences and concerts. One particle memory I have is when I was a senior in high school, Mountain View got to perform John Rutter's Requiem and I got to play an oboe solo there. I remember how nervous I was but how it turned out okay after all. The acoustics of the tabernacle made for a beautiful oboe sound. I also remember going to concerts with my best friend, Jana Stutz. I remember a free concert we went to at Christmas time that Kurt Bestor did that was so fun! Oh, the memories. To see a news story, go to Deseret News or ksl.com.

I was DEVASTATED when I heard about this.
I have many memories too.
I had to share though. My mom went to school with Kurt Bestor. Very cool. That would have been an awesome concert, especially having it there in the Tabernacle.
