I have quite a collection of books on the topic of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as I want to continue to learn, to understand what's behind me and ahead of me and what that can mean in my life today. A few years ago I was able to weekly watch "Scripture Roundtable" on BYU-TV and became very fond of the comments and thoughts of Robert Millet. As I've delved into the many books he's written, I've felt like he's talking directly to ME and I easily understand his messages. So he's become one of my favorites.
If you've followed any of my blog posts, you know I'm easily impressed by "connections"! It amazes me when I learn of a family connection between people who may not have known it, or at least that I hadn't known about.
I was looking up the ancestry of my favorite author Robert Millet recently and saw that his father, Lou Millet, was listed on the site Hillbilly-music.com. This site lists many of his recordings and hits from the 1950s. https://www.rocky-52.net/chanteursm/millet_lou.htm
The reason I was so fascinated by this discovery is that my Dad, Ernest Margheim, is also listed on Hillbilly-Music.com.
I feel like I have something more in common with Robert L. Millet now. Not only do we share the same religious beliefs, but our fathers were both involved in the western music of the "early" days of the 1930s-1950s. I just found this to be really cool! My dad would be fascinated to know this too!
