Mr. Carson was deeply interested in all activities pertaining to the soc i al and civic welfare of the village, and though not always actively eng ag ed in promoting the projects, he contributed generously and his influe nc e was always felt.
His life is indeed a monument. His happy smile and hearty welcome wil l b e missed. | Carson, James Duane (I79495)

Obituary:
DC-born, Michigan-raised, and California-educated and married, our dea r m other’s coast-to-coast life settled back in Michigan to raise, and b e nea r, her family. The influence and love of relatives seemed better th an coa stal beauty and temperate weather.
Her eight children were only eleven years apart, in girl-boy alternati n g order, guaranteeing much noise and friction and frustration for decad es . A desired familiarity and closeness of siblings close-in-age seeme d bet ter than less stress and lower anxiety.
She lived in the same relatively modest house almost her whole married l i fe, choosing a neighborhood with better schools, which left them in a h om e with less room than they would have liked. Giving her children the b es t start in life through an excellent education and a shared bedroom se eme d better than additional square footage and nicer furnishings.
Her last child is a Down Syndrome son, whom she kept in the home, and ca r ed for long after the others had left. Helping her seven older childre n l earn how to love and serve seemed better than avoiding the enormous s trai n and burden of a special-needs child.
She lived as a widow for almost fifteen years after the sudden death o f h er husband Larry. Keeping her faith seemed better than walking away , desp ite many unanswered petitions for reasons and comfort and strength .
She remembered birthdays and names and events and situations of an impre s sive number of people, especially among her own immediate and extende d fa mily. Knowing and bringing up these small details with so many seeme d bet ter than only thinking and talking about herself and her own challe nges.
All of our mother’s quiet acts and hidden sacrifices and tried faith a n d kind words and selfless living made her seem to us - despite her impe rf ections and weaknesses and flaws - just better. For which we have th e res t of our lives to be, and to live, better because of her.

Dennis Joshua Davis was born April 7, 1861 in a cabin near Provo Utah. H is Father was Joshua Davis and his Mother was Johanna Anderson. Dennis' s father was born in Alton Ill. and his Mother was born in Malmo Sweden.
The cabin that Dennis was born in was on the property that his father own ed in the undeveloped area between Provo and Springville. It was later c alled the Ironton hill. When Dennis was still small, he and his mothe r moved to another property that his Father owned, this property was Wes t of what was then called the bench. Later it housed the Geneva Steel. T hey lived there for several years.
When Dennis was quite small, he remembers an incident that happened at th e home. One of his half brothers, who had moved in with them, became fri ghtened when a bunch of local Indians were on the rampage and threatenin g all who were around. Dennis's Mother decided they were going to walk ba ck to Provo so in the middle of the night she bundled them all up and lef t the home. There was Johanna, who carried baby Norman, older brother Ma rtin, who carried Dennis, Homer, who walked. Martin stumbled over a stum p and thought it was an Indian. They avoided the roads so it took the m a long time to reach Provo. They finally made it to Tom Browns home, w here they spent the rest of the night. The next day they learned that th e Indians had stole a squaw from another tribe and was threatening to kil l her.
Shortly after this incident Johanna and her children moved into her own h ome with her children.
Dennis was a hard working young man. He helped his Father in every way h e could. They cleared brush, fell trees and sage brush from morning to ni ght in order to clear the land to build houses. There were many childre n from two wives to support and feed. Dennis never got to go to school fo r a formal education because he worked so hard to help support the family .
When he was 23, he met and married Ada Draper, from Moroni Ut, Sanpete Co unty. They were married Feb. 5 1884. Their home was in Provo and becam e an extension of the kind of life Dennis was used to. He built an adob e home on a piece of property that he inherited from his father and it be came a beautiful place.
Later on, they built a bigger brick home to raise their growing family . Dennis excelled in horticulture and grew a business growing vegetable s and fruit. He was known as "The Watermelon King."

Donna Haymore Taylor Aug 1, 1928 - July 25, 2014
Donna Haymore Taylor, a truly elect lady, died July 25, 2014 one week s h y of her 86th birthday at her home as she desired.
Donna was born Aug. 1, 1928 the 6th of 9 children born to David Frankl i n Haymore and Emma Geneva Huish in Douglas, AZ. The gospel of Jesus Chr is t of Latter-Day Saints was an everyday part of her upbringing as was t h e spirit of missionary work. She served her first LDS mission as a you n g woman in Mexico and Guatemala.
Being a wife and mother was her life's aspiration. She was introduce d t o James Calvin Taylor who wasn't intimidated when told she was very p arti cular. Three weeks later they were engaged, and then married on Dec . 22 , 1952 in the Mesa, AZ LDS Temple. They had 10 children together who m the y taught to value family, hard work, education and the Gospel of Je sus Ch rist. She served valiantly in many church callings and was deepl y involve d in family history. After her husband retired, they served thr ee more mi ssions together; at Nauvoo Restoration, as mission Presiden t s in Lancing , MI and a Family History mission in Omaha, NE.
The consummate homemaker, Donna was very skilled in the art of runni n g a household and raising children. It was not in her nature to find fa ul t with anyone but only to look for the good in everyone.
Donna's entire life was defined by discipleship, charity and service f o r her family, fellow man and her faith. She didn't like attention and n ev er sought the spotlight, but was quietly in the background always doin g f or others. Donna was a frugal and resourceful woman whose mantra was : Us e it up, wear it out, make it do, or do without!
She was often heard to say, "I have had a good life. I can't image heav e n being any better than I have it right here." It was only towards th e ve ry end of her life, while enduring the effects of old age, that sh e chang ed her mind and decided she'd like to find out. She was anxious a nd read y to return home to her Father in Heaven and loved ones there.
She was preceded in death by her parents, daughter Joanne, son Craig a n d grandson, Taylor John (TJ) Kennedy.

Douglas "Doc" Warren Jensen left this world on Wednesday, July 19th, 201 7 . His life was filled with service to others and daily kind deeds. He w a s one of the friendliest, most tender-hearted men who freely gave of h i s time and talents to anyone in need. He had the most incredible "gif t o f gab." If you knew him at all--and even if you didn't and just cross ed h is path--it's more than likely you have been swept up in a long conv ersat ion filled with humor, wonder, praise, philosophy, beauty, homily , and mo re than a little good-natured "bullshit." During these often per sonal, in timate chats, you knew undeniably that you were the most import ant perso n to Doug, his best friend. And you truly were. He loved you. Y ou felt a s if you could listen to him forever, and every ending was to o soon. A gi fted artist, Doug could turn things like wood, paint, and ev en eggshell s into pieces worthy of display. Even his gardens and ground s attracted a dmirers. Ever self-critical, he struggled to accept prais e for his effort s, but we all marveled at his skillful work .
Doug was born in Gunnison, Utah, but his family moved to Vernal whil e h e was a boy, so he grew up in the Basin. He loved this town and the p eopl e in it. Some of his fondest memories stemmed from his early life o n th e game farm, where he developed a life-long love of animals and wher e h e learned his hunting and fishing skills. He spent many peaceful hour s fl y fishing the Green River, often with a dog or a daughter in tow. An d man y a campfire was honored by his Dutch oven cooking .
Doug married Roberta Jean Abbott of Spanish Fork in 1971 and soon move d h is growing family to Chicago, where he earned his Doctorate in Denta l Sur gery degree. The couple returned to Vernal so he could practice hi s trade . Doug was a gentle dentist, applying his artistic talents and ca ring per sonality to his work. He also gave much of his time to the commu nity, ser ving as a scoutmaster, coach, church leader, teacher, member o f the searc h and rescue, and helping whomever and however he could. Dou g and Robbi e raised their six spirited children on Robinwood Lane unti l Robbie tragi cally passed in 1995. In November 1996 ,
Doug married Lisa Ann Summarell. Not only did Doug gain his best frien d , but he also added another daughter. The adventurous couple settled i n M aesar, bought a motorcycle, and started taking many trips to exotic l ocat ions--like Wendover. Together they enjoyed working on projects, bowl ing , driving around the mountains hunting for rocks and landscaping piec es , building and collecting things, hanging out with friends and family , an d laughing and loving.
Despite Doug's physical and mental health problems later in life, they e n joyed a good life together. Doug is preceded in death by his father (Ro be rt) and mother (Ruth), sister (Jocelyn), and first wife (Roberta).

Obituary:
Earl Benson Weaver passed away on January 1, 2015 at the age of eighty-e i ght.
He was born October 27, 1926 to Earl and Jenny Benson Weaver in Presto n , Idaho.
Earl grew up on a beautiful, picture-perfect farm with his loving dad a n d mom and four adoring sisters: Kinnie, Virginia, MaryLou, and Jenale e .
Surrounded by nature, animals, and a wonderful family, Earl had the perf e ct childhood. The "love at home" and his insurmountable appreciation f o r nature, anything from sunsets, to his favorite, rocks, would define h i m throughout his life and, subsequently, would fittingly earn him the n ic kname "Nature Boy."
After graduating high school, he served in the U.S. Navy in WWII and tra i ned as a Coxswain (pronounced Cox un), a landing craft operator, endin g u p in Shanghai.
Upon returning, Earl moved to Utah and entered the University of Utah f o r four years, writing for the Utah Chronicle as the Daily Sports Edito r , becoming a member of the Sigma Nu Fraternity, and majoring in Journal is m.
His experience at the U of U gave way to an unprecedented knowledge of t h e English language. Earl's ability to write, spell, and his vast vocabu la ry could knock your socks off!
His excellence in English and math led him into banking, where he work e d for the Federal Reserve Bank, Coombs and Co. Brokerage, Bank of Sal t La ke, and finally retiring in 1987 as Branch Manager of First Securit y Ban k in Rose Park.
He later became a member of the Utah Booster's Crimson Club, President ' s Club, and Deseret Club. His passion for sports was shifted into hig h ge ar as he became involved as a season ticket holder to football and b asket ball games and began doing everything from swimming, tennis, golfin g, an d basketball, to taking part in organized hiking adventures with th e Crim son Club, which he raked up thousands of miles over his lifetime .
Earl lived an almost non-stop life and his down time was pruning his tre e s, picking fruit, or working in his yard. He surrounded himself with qu al ity people and would not consider your company if you weren't of quali t y and decency. He was humbled by greatness by those in their respectiv e f ields and was constantly awed by those who could break records and b e a t the top of their games.
Earl deeply and genuinely loved his family and friends as could visibl y b e seen when he spoke of them. He greatly enjoyed being charitable, wh ethe r by philanthropy or simply giving his fruit out of his yard or a "j ust b ecause" gift. Earl led, by example, a quality life and leaves behin d a le gacy that by its own definition, is exceptional .
Survived by daughter, Melody Gallegos (Patrick); grandchildren, Kelsey a n d Derek Gallegos; wife, Barbara Ellen Smith, Heber City; and sister, Je na lee Santos, Corvallis, Oregon. Preceded in death by his mom and dad an d s isters.
Viewing services will be held on Wednesday, January 8, 2015 from 6:0 0 t o 8:00 p.m. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m., with a viewi ng o ne hour prior at 10:00 a.m., on Thursday, January 9, 2015 at Wasatc h Law n Mortuary and Cemetery, 3401 South Highland Drive (1495 East), Eas t Mill creek.
