Her happiness and joy came from the love she has for our Father in Heaven, Jesus Christ and her family. Her life was dedicated to teaching, serving and loving them. She was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and served in many callings throughout her life. She loved attending the temple, especially the weddings of her children and grandchildren. She was a wonderful example to all who knew her. She was a loving and kind mother who endured many things as a widow for 52 years, but came out on top as a choice and beloved woman and Mother. Indeed, she was the heart of our family. We love and miss her very much.
