Approval Process for Doing the Temple Work for a Deceased Excommunicated Friend

Barbara W Neal

I have a dear friend, Vicki Ellen Blair (G8LZ-NKR), who passed away on March 23, 2017. She was a former member who had been excommunicated in the 1970s. Her family has avoided requests to allow for her temple work to be done. Recently, I received a call from one of her family members. She informed me that this sister's non-member son has granted permission for his mother's work to be done. I need to know what the approval process is for me to do this sisters temple work.

Thank you for your help with this inquiry. I look forward to your reply.

We are attaching a link to an article from the Help Center with instructions for requesting temple work for a friend. This would be a good step towards the approval process.
