Oliver Chowder – Extra Counselor in 1st Presidency

Oliver Chowder

Oliver Chowder

Additional Counselor in the First Presidency

Chowder was given the role of Additional or “Extra” Counselor in the First Presidency because he is young enough to be energetic, and just stupid enough to follow orders without asking questions.  Chowder’s stupidity has gotten him into trouble in the past, such as when he got his head stuck in the veil once while officiating in sacred temple ordinances.

Chowder is the youngest of eight children in his family, all named Oliver, but oddly, he’s the only male.
