Last night was my daughter’s high school graduation. I’m sure other people write heartfelt retrospectives on the passage of time (to the tune of “Sunrise, Sunset”). Me, I do what I do whenever I have a long list of local names: list the “unique” Utah names! Alexsis Austyn Braxton (x2) Brayan Brenlee Bridger (x3) Brigg…
