The Peter Julius Christofferson Family Monument: The Family and Nearby Landmarks

On a very hot August afternoon in 2016, family members gathered to dedicate a monument to Peter J. Christofferson and his two wives. The Sons of the Utah Pioneers and the Christofferson descendants erected the monument to celebrate the contributions of these Utah pioneers. Elder D. Todd Christofferson, an apostle in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and a great-grandson of Peter Christofferson offered the dedicatory prayer. When "Amen" was pronounced a soft cool breeze not only refreshed the gathering but seemed to signify that the monument was accepted by those deceased honorees. There are also other family sites nearby to visit.
