Apostles and CTR rings

Not a CTR ring, but semi-topical:

 

Pres. Hinckley used to wear a very noticeable ring--looked like black onyx, maybe, with a diamond set in the center.  I had seen photos of Pres. Hunter wearing a nearly-identical ring, and for a while I thought maybe it was something that got passed down from prophet to prophet. 

 

Haven't seen it on President Monson, though . . .

I guess some prophets do have the keys for resurrection after all.

This article: http://mormonsoprano.com/2010/11/04/ctr-symbol-celebrates-40-years/  - about the history of the CTR symbol and ring quotes from Brigham Young and Elder. L. Tom Perry and ends with the important point:

 

...it is certainly not a piece of jewelry, or a logo that is singularly important to our religion. Rather, it is the potential the symbol has for reminding and motivating us, beginning at a young age, to Choose the way of Christ, each and every day. Because walking the Right way, is the recipe from God for true peace and happiness.

Hey! You just read my mind, I was now going to post about it and was wondering the same thing! I don't like that ring at all, not sure why, kind of creep me out. x_x
