His parents were Morgan Richards and Margaret Adams Richards. Alma married three times: First, to Marian Gardiner on March 30, 1918. They were later divorced. He second married Anita Gertrude Huntimer in August of 1932. They were later divorced. He third married Lenore Catherine Griffin on June 25, 1948. Alma W. Richards died on April 3, 1963 in Long Beach, California, at the age of 73. His interment, Parowan, Utah. ~ ~ ~ ~ A track star from Brigham Young High School became Utah's first Olympic champion. July 8, 1912, in Stockholm, Sweden, marked a great moment in BYH history. That's when Alma Richards sailed over a bar 6'4" high to win first place in the running high jump at the fifth modern Olympic games. Richards was a student at Brigham Young High School when he went to Chicago to try out for and, though virtually unknown, make the U.S. Olympic team. Some athletes trained on the ship that took them to Europe, but Richards felt that his event was not suited to shipboard practice so he just relaxed. He began intensive training in Antwerp, where the team had a layover, and continued to train until his event was called. During the competition, as the bar was moved higher, Richards required the full three attempts allowed to clear 6'1", 6'2", and 6'3". When the bar was moved up to 6'4", he later told an audience in Provo, he felt discouraged and chilled. But, he continued, "Then I thought of the B.Y.U., Utah and my friends there, and the old United States and made the spurt—and chill and all went over the bar in the first attempt." Richards excelled at many track and field events, including the broad jump, pole vault, shot put, discus, and the 100 and 400 meter races, and competed until 1932. During his career he set 55 records. Besides his Olympic feat, other major achievements included decathlon champion at the National AAU meet in San Francisco in 1915 and high point honors at the Inter-Allied World Games in Paris in 1919. Born in Parowan, Utah, on February 20, 1890, to Morgan and Margaret Adams Richards, Alma Richards attended Murdock Academy, graduated from Brigham Young High School, attended Brigham Young University, graduated from Cornell University, and received a law degree from the University of Southern California. He served as a lieutenant in the U.S. Army during World War I. Although he was admitted to the California Bar, he elected to teach school rather than practice law. He died in Long Beach, California, on April 3, 1963, survived by his wife, Lenore Griffin, a son, and three daughters.

Husband goes by "Mac" to avoid confusion, since his father goes by "Joe". Alternate address: PO Box 17257, Salt Lake City, Utah 84117 ~ ~ ~ ~ I attended BYU Hawaii my freshman year after college and returned to BYU Provo the fall of 1969, where I majored in music. I was chosen the Engineering Week Queen and 2nd runner-up to Belle of the Y in Spring 1970. I met Mac Brubaker as part of the Engineering Week contest, and married him in August 1970. We are the parents of 8 children and 11 grandchildren so far. In the children, we have an orthopedic surgeon, an assistant dean at the U, a daughter who heads the harp department at BYU, another daughter who teaches harp, an attorney specializing in international arbitration, a web architect, a son graduating this year with a degree in finance, and a high school sophomore who loves martial arts. Two of our girls wanted to play the harp. Lessons and associations led to me owning a business of renting, importing and selling harps. Another child wanted to learn classical guitar, so I studied that with him for a few years. I am currently studying organ with Tabernacle organist Bonnie Goodliffe, and enjoying the Temple Square organs. As a result of having grandchildren, I write stories for children, am a song-writer and composer, and I am starting to illustrate my own books.

Stephen & Irene Richards

Board of Trustees, 1939 to 1959. Stephen L. Richards was born June 18, 1879 in Mendon, Cache County, Utah to Dr. Stephen Longstroth Richards and Emma Louisa Stayner Richards. He was a grandson of Willard Richards, who was with Joseph the Prophet at the martyrdom in Carthage, Illinois, and who was one of the early pioneers of Utah. His mother was a daughter of Arthur Stayner, a man of business affairs in the early history of the West, and the man to whom the establishment of sugar works in Utah is largely indebted. He was blessed with an ideal mother and a father of sterling worth who had much to do with his careful training and principles of integrity, truthfulness, honesty, sincerity, kindness, respect for parental authority, devotion to home and the members thereof, and loyalty to God and His work. Elder Richards was baptized when about fourteen years old and was ordained sucessively to the several offices in the Priesthood, except that of a Seventy. From his youth he took great interest in Church activities. The scholastic training of Elder Richards was characterized by the unusually large number of schools which he attended. To begin with he came under the splendid tutorship of Camille Cobb, a woman of rare culture. After that he attended Farmington public school, Davis Stake Academy, Salt Lake county and city public schools, LDS University, Salt Lake High School and University of Utah, while his professional training was obtained in the University of Michigan and in the University of Chicago. From the latter institution he received his LLB degree. After completing Law School, he passed the bar and served as an attorney. One year at the law school of the University at Michigan and two years at the law school at the University of Chicago gave him the foundation work for the success he subsequently attained in his chosen profession. While at the University of Utah he was one of the team of inter-collegiate debaters; he was the first Utah student to be graduated from the department of law at the University of Chicago and was one of the first class ever graduated in law from that institution receiving a cum laude degree. On February 21, 1900, Elder Richards married Irene Merrill, daughter of Clarence Merrill and Bathsheba Smith), who was born June 4, 1874, in Fillmore, Utah. This marriage was blessed with nine children, namely, Lynn Stephen, Irene Louise, Lois Bathsheba, Alice Lula, Helen Merle, Georgia Gill, Joseph Albert, Philip Longstroth and Richard Merrill. He held many positions in the Church, all of which he filled with honor and integrity. His first official position in the Sabbath school work was that of secretary of the Sugar House Ward Sunday School; later he became a teacher in the same Sunday School. He taught also in the Sunday Schools at Pleasant View and Malad, Idaho, and in the 17th Ward of Salt Lake City. In the Stake Sunday school work he became assistant superintendent of the Salt Lake Stake and later a member of the Granite Stake Sunday School Board. In 1906, at the age of 37, he was called to the Sunday School General Board. Following the death of George Reynolds he was appointed second assistant general superintendent of the Sunday School Union April 6, 1908. He was also chosen as a member of the Priesthood Study Committee and of the Board of Control of the Deseret Gymnasium. In business he served as officer and director in a number of corporations. In Tooele he engaged in farming and in Oneida county, Idaho, in ranching. For some time he also acted as principal of the Malad City public schools and for many years was a successful practising attorney in Salt Lake City, serving also as a member of the law faculty at the University of Utah. Also Religion class work has claimed a portion of his time, and at one time he served as superintendent of Religion Classes in Malad City, Idaho. Whether at home or abroad he kept up a steady and consistent interest in Church work. At Ann Arbor, Michigan, his home was the place where religious meetings were held for the students and members of the Church. While in Chicago he did Sunday school and other Church work with students. In his chosen profession of the law Elder Richards was exceptionally successful. The law firms of which he was a member were always among the foremost. In private practice his work was in the civil as distinguished from the criminal law procedure. He was one of the safest counselors at the Salt Lake bar and was very conscientious in his professional work. For two terms he served as secretary of the Utah State Bar Association. In the midst of his ecclesiastical and secular activities, Stephen L. Richards was chosen as a member of the Council of Twelve Apostles, being nominated by President Joseph F. Smith and unanimously sustained by the First Presidency and Apostles in one of their general meetings. He was ordained an Apostle by President Joseph F. Smith on Thursday, Jan. 18, 1917. After his calling to the Apostleship, he was very active in Church affairs, visiting the different Stakes of Zion and attending to ecclesiastical duties generally. On April 9, 1951, President David O. McKay called Elder Richards to become his First Counselor. He held this position until his death May 19, 1959 at Salt Lake City, Utah.
