Gordon, I have a question about Herbert James Smith.

Myrna wrote: According to my records, Herbert James Smith is buried in Salt Lake City. Is that right? At what cemetery? I have that he died 28 March 1937. His wife, Susan Bean Smith, however, is buried in Springville City Cemetery. She died on 8 Sept 1924. Why weren't they buried in the same cemetery? Am I wrong?

Thanks for answering this. M

I am not sure why he was in Salt Lake at the hospital when he died.  Maybe he was in Salt Lake when he had his heart
attack.  On the death certificate, it says he died of an occlusion of the desending branch of the left coronary artery.  It also
says related causes were arteriosclerosis, and chronic endocarditis.
