She worked for 26 years at Valley Drug in Midvale. Her life was built around her home, her yard, and her family. If cleanliness is next to godliness, we know where she is. Her devotion to her husband of 71 years was an inspiration. Her grandchildren will be eternally grateful for the love and care she provided her great-grandchildren when she was needed. She served for many years as Junior Sunday School Coordinator in the Union 2nd Ward. She never met a child she didn’t love and embrace. She belonged to the Lady Union Lions Club for many years. She and Joe joined the Roamin’ Utes Travel Club that provided many fond memories.
