G. Homer Durham
George Homer Durham was an American academic administrator and was a general authority of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints from 1977 until his death.
Durham was born in Parowan, Utah, and was raised in Salt Lake City. As a boy in grade school, he met and became lifelong friends with future LDS Church president Gordon B. Hinckley. As a young man, Durham served as a missionary for the LDS Church in the British Mission, where he served as president of the missions Young Mens Mutual Improvement Association. At the start of his mission, Durhams mission president was John A. Widtsoe. On his mission, Durham met Widtsoes daughter, Leah Eudora Widtsoe, whom he would later marry in the Salt Lake Temple. Durhams second mission president, Joseph F. Merrill, encouraged him to pursue graduate education when he returned to the United States.
