In Juab County, education has always been important, and Sperry family members took it to a higher level when they became teachers.

I grew up in Nephi, living across the street from the Sperry sisters, who served as elementary teachers during the 1940's and beyond. They were Mable and Alean Sperry Pace. They had a big brother who also thought education was important and was the Principal of Nephi High School in 1928 when he signed this diploma. The second declaration is of the passing of Mrs. George A. Sperry, Sr. It often takes a supportive family to be the excellent educators as this Nephi Sperry family was.
