Obituary:
It is with deep sadness and amazement that we announce the passing of o u r incredible mother, Barbara Amussen Benson Walker on March 26, 2020 . W e thought and hoped that she would live forever through sheer, cheerf ul f orce of will. Mom passed away peacefully at her daughter Heather an d Dr . Paul R. Sandstrom's home in Mesa, AZ surrounded by her loved one s singi ng her into the heavenly choir at the age of 85. She was joyfull y greete d as she passed through the veil of mortality by her beloved hus band, th e late Dr. Robert H. Walker (Bob), her parents and loved ones.
Barbara will never be forgotten by her posterity: her five "perfect" chi l dren, Flora (Larry) Spackman of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, Heather (Pau l ) Sandstrom of Mesa, Arizona, Laurel (David) Udall of Lindon, Utah, Rob er t (Joni) Walker of Honolulu, Hawaii and Bountiful, Utah, and Holly (Ka rl ) Tilleman of Phoenix, Arizona. She and Bob are blessed with 25 "Aweso m e Blossom" grandchildren: Beth (Stuart) Thompson, Mary Anne (Nelson) Kr oe ker, Sara (Dustin) Johnson, Holly (David) Melchin, Grant (Chelsa) Spac kma n, Erica (Alan) Soelberg, Ryan (Karen) Sandstrom, Alexis (BJ) Gremill ion , Walker (Lauren) Sandstrom, Ashlyn (Brady) Fenn, Barbara Jo (Garrett ) Ha tch, Christine (Rock) Hull, Robert (Brian) Matheny, Rachel (Jon) Hug hes , Janelle (Kyle) Palmer, Louisa (Hayden) Clasby, Derek (Amanda) Walke r, J ustin (Tatum) Walker, McKenna (Austin) Bush, Jacob Walker, Karl B. ( Jessi ca) Tilleman, Daniel (Becca) Tilleman, Mary (Brandon) Caywood, Mich ael (J ulie) Tilleman and Sarah Tilleman. Barbara adored each and every o ne of t heir 52 brilliant great-grandchildren (with four more percolatin g in uter o) and while Barbara would love to have each one named, it wil l take up f ar too much room. She is also survived by her three beloved s isters, Beve rly Parker, Bonnie (Lowell) Madsen, Beth (David) Burton, an d sister-in-la w, May Benson.
She was predeceased by her devoted and brilliant husband, her adored par e nts, her protective and loving older brothers, Reed and Mark Benson, si st er-in-law, Lela Benson, and brother-in-law, James Parker.
Barbara was born June 20, 1934, the eldest daughter of President Ezra Ta f t and Flora Benson, the third of six children.
Barbara was born in Boise, ID when her father was working for the Stat e o f Idaho as an agricultural county agent. When Barbara was four year s old , the Benson family moved to Washington, DC. (for the first time. ) In 194 3, her father was called to be an Apostle in The Church of Jesu s Christ o f Latter-day Saints. This necessitated the family's move to Sa lt Lake Cit y, Utah where Mom resided until her marriage. Mom's childhoo d was spent i n an idyllic family. Growing up with siblings Reed, Mark, B everly, Bonni e and Beth, their home was filled with love, learning, laug hter and lulla bies.
Barbara graduated from East High School in Salt Lake City where she serv e d as President of the East High School Associated Girls Association an d t he Seminary Student body Vice-President. She attended the Universit y of U tah for one year where she served as the freshman class Vice Presi dent. W hen her parents moved back to Washington, DC for her Dad to serv e in US P resident Dwight D. Eisenhower's cabinet as Secretary of Agricul ture, it w as decided (not by Mom!) that she needed to attend BYU. Afte r much "discu ssion", Mom acquiesced and left the U of U for BYU. She end ed up loving h er three years at BYU where she studied Home Economics. Sh e was voted "fr iendliest girl on campus" (WHAT?!!!! Of course!!!) and sh e dazzled as th e BYU Homecoming Queen in 1954. She worked at Deseret Boo k during the sum mer months. She later served on the National BYU Alumn i Board.
Barbara was unforgettable! Her personality was bigger than life; she lit e rally filled every room! She had a joyful, commanding presence and a me ga watt smile adorned with bright red lipstick which she was eager to sha r e on unsuspecting cheeks! She was the most fun, upbeat, optimistic, enc ou raging, generous, positive and grateful person - ever! She could fin d th e good in any situation. Mom's vehicle of choice was a convertible w hic h she drove with panache and style - even in the middle of harsh Cana dia n winters, with kids piled in the back seat covered in blankets! A s a pow erful force of nature, she used her talents for awesome! One gran ddaughte r called her a "human Disneyland!" Her enthusiastic personalit y made he r the consummate hostess, as generous with her hospitality as s he was wit h her talents. She loved Christmas with all her heart and deco rated her h omes to the max. The Walker home was open for any meeting, fi reside, an d party, complete with delicious refreshments. She was friend s with every one she met. She loved the quote: "Blessed are they who hav e the gift o f making friends; the power of going out of one's self and a ppreciating w hatever is noble and loving in another." (Thomas Hughes 182 2-1896) As Eld er Jeffrey R. Holland of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostle s said recently , "Everyone needs a dose of Barbara Walker every day! "
One can not think of Barbara Benson Walker without remembering her dee p l ove of music and her powerful coloratura soprano voice which she mos t gen erously shared right up until the week before she passed away. Sh e starte d singing lessons at the age of 13, and from then on, she trille d her wa y through life! The last two weeks of mortality, she was surroun ded const antly by her family as they sang to her in person and through v ideo call s - and she sang with us!
Barbara's first calling in the church was ward chorister at the age o f 8 , accomplished by standing on a chair, in the Chevy Chase ward in Bet hesd a, Maryland. She took piano and voice lessons for many years. Her si ngin g accomplishments were prodigious, but to name a few of the highligh ts: S he adored quartet singing for years with her dear friends, Carma Fl orence , Hope Swendsen and Cathy Whitehead. She sang the soprano lead i n severa l operas in Calgary, including The Impressario and The Merry Wid ow at th e Jubilee Auditorium, and she soloed personally for two presiden ts of th e United States, President Dwight D. Eisenhower and President Ri chard Nix on and their wives. In Barbara's words, "A highlight of my musi cal life w as to be requested by President Gordon B. Hinckley and Preside nt Thomas S . Monson to sing a solo at the solemn assembly at General Con ference in t he Tabernacle when my dearly beloved father, President Ezr a Taft Benson , was sustained by the entire church, The Church of Jesus C hrist of Latte r-day Saints, as the prophet of the Lord, prophet, seer an d revelator o n April 6, 1986. I sang one of my dear father's favourite , "O Divine Rede emer" by Charles Gounod, accompanied on the Tabernacle o rgan by Robert Cu ndick." With all her musical accomplishments, Mom wrot e in her personal h istory, "My most important role is that of wife and m other and singing lu llabies to my children." We are so grateful for th e nightly lullabies sh e sang to us every night right before our prayers.
Mom and Dad were married in the Salt Lake City temple on 29 September 19 5 5. They were introduced by their parents. Dad was an accomplished surge o n in Calgary. Mom was on tour - and soloing - with the BYU Madrigal Sin ge rs when the choir came to Calgary to perform. Grandpa and Grandma Bens o n flew to Calgary from Washington, DC and Grandma Fannye Walker drov e u p from Raymond, Alberta to facilitate this momentous introduction bac ksta ge. After the concert, their mothers accompanied doctor Dad on a hou se ca ll. As Dad later said, "Our mothers were in the backseat planning t he wed ding and I was in the front seat trying to remember her name!" Mo m move d to Calgary and their happy union lasted 43 years until Bob's dea th in 1 998, although through their temple covenants, we are deeply grate ful the y are sealed together for eternity .
Of all Mother's roles and talents, the one she poured her heart and so u l into was that of being an excellent mother. We children lovingly ref e r to her as our "divine drill sergeant." Mom and Dad had exceptionall y hi gh standards for us in everything we did. And we did a lot. As child ren , besides our school work and church service, we were put in almost e ver y lesson and activity available to children growing up in Calgary: pi ano , organ, swimming, diving, scuba diving, synchronized swimming, tenni s, b adminton, figure skating/hockey, hula dancing, ballet, Scottish danc ing , art lessons, horseback riding, hiking, choir, typing, sewing, pian o an d vocal trios, swim team, volleyball, basketball, rugby and football . W e are grateful for the hours Mom spent driving us everywhere; we ha d fu n honing our skills (or lack thereafter) especially at The Glencoe C lub . Of all the lessons, piano and organ were probably where Mom's tenac ious ness was most focused. In hindsight, we are intensely grateful for t he sk ills we learned. Because of Mom and Dad's intense encouragement an d suppo rt, all of their children received at least one university degree . Extend ed family was also incredibly important to Mom and Dad and thei r home wa s always open to our sweet cousins for however long the need. P recious fa mily relationships were made and solidified as time was spen t at the Raym ond and Calgary Stampede, and at their homes in Midway, Uta h, Mesa, Arizo na, and Waterton Lakes National Park. Dad and Mom felt str ongly that Sund ay dinners were a sacred family bonding time, and the dec ades-long tradit ion of Mom's Alberta roast beef Sunday dinners were alwa ys a highlight o f the week, where tummies were filled and where we all b ecame best friend s.
Mom served continually in the community and in the church. While she sa i d she loved living in Canada, she had a ferocious love of the United St at es of America. The American flag was always flying - even in Canada. S h e recently proclaimed that her true loves were her faith, family, freed om , food, and Fox News! She lead the music in her congregation, served a s w ard music chairman and directed the choir for literally decades. Ever y mu sic calling | Benson, Barbara Amussen (I17101)

I found this when I was going through my dad's computer files. He was be g inning to make a book about his life stories. This is what he had so fa r:
Dedication
My Life was inspired by my daughter Brinley Nicole Labrum who kindly enc o uraged me to document the stories of my life .
Introduction
I didn’t comprehend just how precious life is until my newly born daught e r entered the world on March 20th, 1993, screaming at the top of her lu ng s. She was obviously in a lot of pain and it tore at my heart. Desper at e to comfort her I reached out my pinky finger to her tiny little hand . S uddenly, her little fingers clenched onto my pinky and her screamin g ease d, and then stopped altogether. It was as if grasping my little f inger g ave her instant security and comfort. At that moment my heart wa s melde d to hers. Brinley Nicole Labrum had me hooked for life.
My comprehension expanded as my brother-in-law Clayton Allred passed aw a y at age 48 with cancer, followed by his son David at age 32 with melan om a. David left behind his wife and three young children, but before h e lef t, he made sure he left his family with some incredible memories . At hi s funeral a DVD, set to the music of xxxxx “Live Life Like You a re Dying” , played sharing those life experiences .
Full comprehension of how precious life is came the xxfall of xxx, an d i t came in a very personal and painful way. It started when I receiv e d a phone call from my brother Lynn. He said something like “John, I do n’ t know how to say this, so I’m just going to say it. I have cancer an d th ey have given me six months to live”. A year later, I found mysel f onc e again fishing for salmon in Washington State with Lynn. This tim e Lynn , determined to make some lasting memories, brought his son Tyso n with us .
It had been almost four years since that dreadful call. During those ye a rs, I praying fervently for Lynn to be healed, or cured, but this visi t w as different. As I walked into the room, I couldn’t believe my eyes . I t took me so off guard that I couldn’t hold back my tears. My prayer s cha nged that day. Now I was pleading for a quick release from his suff ering . Three days later I got the call at work to get there as soon a s possib le. Early in the morning hours Lynn took his final breaths in t his morta l life.
As I have thought back over the experiences of my life, the realizatio n h as come to me that even the grandest of experiences, the most life ch angi ng experiences, fade over time and I struggle to recall the detail s and t he feelings I had at that moment in time.
My hope is that My Life will preserve some of those feelings and memori e s for myself to remember and draw strength from and for my wife, childr en , and future posterity to experience in some small way the stories tha t h ave shaped me into the person I am. | Labrum, John V (I34894)

Jeannetta Rae Harrison Garner
March 11, 1928 - Aug. 8, 2017
Jeannetta Rae Harrison Garner, 89, passed into eternity on August 8, 201 7 , in Nyssa, Oregon. Jeannetta was born March 11th, 1928, in Letha, Idah o , the first child of Alando De “Bob” Harrison and Mamie Gordon Harriso n . The family grew to include Jeannetta’s brothers Bobby, Don, and Basi l , and her sister Charlene.
Jeannetta enjoyed a loving childhood growing up on the family ranch on t h e Emmett bench outside Emmett, Idaho where she attended Hanna Elementa r y School. She later attended and graduated from Emmett High School. Jea nn etta was very popular even back in high school, and that, combined wit h h er love for dancing, earned her the title of “Queen” of one of thei r bi g school dances. Because of the difficult travel between the ranch a nd to wn to attend high school, Jeannetta lived with her grandmother or “ Grammi e” Harrison during the week and returned to the ranch on weekends . Grammi e’s youngest sons, Ferris and Duane, visited their mother ofte n allowin g Jeannetta to gain a great and lasting love for her uncles. Je annetta’ s nickname in school was “Blackie” because of her jet black hair . Even i n her advanced years the darkness of her hair still shows throug h the sil ver gray.
After graduating high school Jeannetta attended the University of Idah o i n Moscow, Idaho for a short time. At the end of WWII a handsome youn g re d haired sailor came from the south Pacific to farm with his famil y nea r the Harrison ranch. It wasn’t long before “Blackie” and “Red” bec ame a n item and on June 11, 1948, Jeannetta married Dee Jesse Garner an d the y became forever known as ‘Dee and Jeannetta,” celebrating 65 year s of ma rriage before Dee’s passing April 10, 2014. Their first home cons isted o f “two rooms and a path.” Their first son, Rodger D, was born Oct ober 26 , 1950, in Ontario, Oregon while they still lived in Emmett. De e worked f or his Uncle Dick Stoker in construction and participated in t he buildin g of the Nyssa Hospital, where the rest of their children wer e born.
Dee and Jeannetta bought an 80-acre farm outside of Nyssa, Oregon on C o w Hollow Road on March 11, 1953, on Jeannetta’s birthday, where they li ve d until Dee’s passing in 2014.
Daniel Todd was born January 13, 1954, Julie Etta (Bennett) on Januar y 6 , 1959, and Kelly J was born July 12, 1960. The family was sealed i n th e Idaho Falls Temple on September 14, 1969. In 1971 Jeannetta gaine d anot her son, Sauan Sukhan, who moved from Thailand after meeting Rodge r who w as then serving as an LDS Missionary. Sauan held a special plac e in Jeann etta’s heart for the rich love he brought to all who became ac quainted wi th him and especially the loving kindness and sweet respect h e has alway s shown to his “adopted” mom. Jeannetta was active in civic a ffairs inclu ding the PTA, Nyssa School Board, and the Malheur County Rep ublican Party . Jeannetta was a State Delegate for the Republican Nationa l Convention , attending with her dear friend June Hartley. Dee and Jeann etta travelle d to Washington, D.C. to attend the first inauguration of P resident Georg e W. Bush. Jeannetta and June Hartley attended President B ush’s second in auguration. Jeannetta held a variety of church callings i n the Church o f Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. One of her last calli ngs was when Je annetta was in her 80’s, Owyhee Ward Relief Society Presi dent. She worke d at various jobs in the community including Wilson Bros . Dept. Store, Pa ulus Jewelry, and drove farm truck for several neighbor s. Jeannetta was i nstrumental in starting the Tare Lab at the Nyssa Amal gamated Sugar Facto ry, and when Amalgamated built a Tare Lab in Mini-Cas sia, she went ther e to train the crews and help start up the lab there.
When Amalgamated’s field department decided to take petiole samples on t h e beet crop for local growers, Jeannetta was instrumental in making th a t happen. What started out as a “harvest” job, turned into a career. S h e worked at Amalgamated from 1966 until she retired in 1991. After reti re ment, Dee and Jeannetta served an 18-month LDS mission at the Atlanta , Ge orgia temple. They made some lifelong friends there and had many spi ritua l experiences.
A couple of years after Dee’s passing, it became necessary for Jeannet t a to move to Nyssa Gardens where she lived the rest of her life. Durin g h er final years, she truly enjoyed the fellowship and frequent visit s of h er many friends and family members.

Obituary:
Keith Steele passed away peacefully, Friday, May 1, 2020, at home in Tay l orsville, Utah, at the age of 102.
Keith was born in Delta, Utah, on August 16, 1917, to Parley Bunker an d L emira Turner Steele. When he was two years old, he moved to Panguitch , Ut ah, with his parents, two brothers and three sisters. He spent his y out h climbing the velvet hills, breathing the fresh country air, and fis hin g on Penny’s Pond.
At age 17, in 1934, he started working for the U.S. Mail on Star Route ( h is favorite job in all the world), hauling mail from Panguitch to Rub y ’ s Inn at Bryce Canyon, Cannonville, Henryville and back to Panguitch . F or six years he hauled the mail, never missing a day. He loved the wi de o pen countryside, the serenity and the majestic beautiful sunrises . A lon g the way, he would often photograph the stunning sky and landsca pes.
After giving up the mail line in 1937, he moved to Los Angeles, Californ i a, to follow his passion for airplanes. He attended Curtis Wright Techn ic al Institute of Aeronautics in Glendale, CA. Upon graduating, he worke d i n many large aircraft factories and private airports, one of which wa s th e Lockheed Aircraft Company in Burbank, CA.
After Lockheed, he went to work at Consolidated Aircraft Company in Sa n D iego, where he worked all during World War II, building the PBY, B- 2 4 a n d B32 airplanes, and teaching the “Rosies how to rivet”. He was c lassif ied as 1-A for military service, next in line to join the war effo rts, wh en the war ended in the summer of 1945.
On one lone weekend Keith returned to Panguitch. Bored, with nothing t o d o, he asked his Childhood friend, Julia Boyter, to accompany him fo r a lo vely drive through Bryce Canyon in his new 1940 Ford Convertible . On thei r first date he proposed and they were married December 27, 194 1 in Las V egas, NV. They established their home in LaMesa, CA, raising t hree childr en, Clifford, DeLores and Raymond.
Keith was also an experienced welder that supported his career at othe r a ircraft operations such as Gibbs Flying Service, Ryan Aircraft Compan y, a nd the Naval Air Station.
In 1955, Keith moved his family to Salt Lake City, UT, finding employme n t with the Galigher Company, as a welder. Shortly, he opened his own bu si ness, Keith’s Hobby House, located at 170 East 800 South, in an old st ore -front pioneer home. It was a special day when a wrecking ball demoli she d the old building and a new Hobby House was erected. The hobby busin es s prospered for 28 years. During those years, he was able to fulfil l a lo ngtime dream of becoming a pilot and flying his own Cessna 172.
In April 1957, he took his family to the Salt Lake Temple where they we r e sealed for eternity. Keith remained active in the Church of Jesus Chr is t of Latter-day Saints throughout his adult life, serving in numerou s bis hoprics as counselor, ward and stake clerks.
It was not a surprise, when Keith and Julia retired from the Hobby Hou s e in 1983 to build a beautiful home on the mountaintop in Panguitch.. . an other dream that came true. Keith and Julia spent their years in ser vic e to their loved ones, community, family and church. Keith served o n th e City’s Board of Directors and developed the Panguitch Airport. H e love d to build, fix and create. There is nothing he couldn’t do with e xpertis e and exactness. He and his wife built a summer home in Blue Spri ngs by P anguitch Lake where he was the happiest and spent many enjoyabl e hours.
Keith loved playing pool, the organ and his harmonica. Music was a gre a t part of his life and he loved singing in the ward choir. He loved boa ti ng, canoeing, camping and fishing. He loved picnics. He loved travelin g a nd photographing the marvelous sights everywhere he went as he travel ed a ll over the west, from Canada to Mexico and chartered some amazing r oa d t rips. He was a skilled craftsman in woodwork and wrought iron. H e wa s a n avid reader with a fine intellectual mind and a keen sense o f humor . He was organized and meticulous. He enjoyed his many friends an d count s the thousands of customers he accumulated in his Hobby House a s some o f his dearest, lifelong associates. He adored his wife and child ren, an d planned his life around them. He believed in hard work and acco mplishe d incredible things, at an age where no one could match his endur ance. H e lived life with exuberance knowing he had truly been blessed. D uring th ese last few years of his life, as he sat in his big easy chai r reminisci ng, he would say, “It sure has been fun”. What a surprise h e had when hi s nephew, David Boyter, came to visit last June, bringing h is old 1940 Fo rd convertible, restored to perfection in all its beauty , to take him fo r a ride. Keith was overjoyed. Keith was in “seventh hea ven” with his sev en Cs: catching fish, Cessna soaring, cereal (Frosted F lake s and Raisi n Bran), cashews, cake, cookies and chocolate (M&Ms).
Dad, we will miss that twinkle in your eyes when you smiled and laughe d . We’ll miss your stories, wise counsel and sound advice.
