Ladies and Gentlemen:
As counsel for Security National Financial Corporation, a Utah corporation, in connection with the proposed registration of 150,000 shares of Common Stock, $2.00 par value per share, it is our opinion that the securities being registered will, when issued, be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable. We consent to the inclusion of our opinion as an Exhibit to the Registration Statement of Security National Financial Corporation on Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Very truly yours,
