Who Inspires You?

Hiya everyone!
Last night grandpa and I showed you the first 2 minutes of this YouTube video from the 91 minute last Thursday's Keynote Session at RootsTech 2015 sponsored by FamilySearch. Also on this video are Keynote addresses by Dennis Brimhall, Mike Mallin, Tan Le.

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW MORE
Thursday Keynote Session - Dennis Brimhall, Mike Mallin, Tan Le (91 minutes)

Dennis Brimhall is the CEO of FamilySearch. He talked about the importance of family, and how partnerships with other genealogy entities makes it easier for us to find evidence of our ancestors. He describes a new FamilyDiscovery Center that is in the lower level of the Joseph Smith Memorial Building. It might be fun to take your family there sometime soon.

Mike Mallin is from MyHeritage.com, one of the sites that is free to LDS members when you sign up through FamilySearch here. He has a cool video shot totally unscripted with cameras on the streets of New York City, captures the excitement of people making a connection to an ancestor for the first time. Mike's segment starts at  45 (min) 45 (sec) into the video.



Tan Le's presentation was particularly touching, and it starts at 1 (hour) 31 (min) and 57 (sec) into the recording. Tan Le is a Viet Nam refugee, known as a "boat person." I can tell you that all 8,000+ people in the conference hall were totally silent as we listened to her story.
