In late
1973, only two months before he passed away, President Harold B. Lee visited
Rick’s College (now BYU-Idaho), where he attended a luncheon and then gave the
college devotional address. As President of Rick’s at that time, Henry B.
Eyring was present with President Lee and described the events in his journal.
These journal notations ended up in his biography, where they portray an unusually
intense spiritual outpouring among those present.
