Gary Player and Amanda Player Hall: Gratitude for the Gospel

Published: June 1, 2022, 11 a.m.

Gary Player is one of the greatest golfers to ever play the game; he is known around the world as \u201cThe Black Knight.\u201d His love for the sport is obvious, but it's clear there is one thing he loves more: His family. He and his wife, Vivienne, who passed away last year, are the parents of six kids. Gary and Vivienne\u2019s story, which includes falling in love as teenagers and 65 years of marriage on earth, has set a powerful example for all who know them. But what does he have to do with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? You\u2019ll have to listen to this week\u2019s episode to find out.
