Glenys Rae Brown Birks 1935 ~ 2014
Our delightful Wife, Mother, Grammy and Gigi returned home to our Heaven l y Father in her sleep early Thursday morning, June 26, 2014. Glenys Ra e B rown Birks was born the first of five children to Archie and Elaine B row n on February 12, 1935 in McCammon, Idaho. She graduated from East Hi gh i n 1953 and then went to Beauty School. Her sweet aunt introduced he r to o ne of her favorite BYU students, Jay Birks, who lived in her basem ent an d they were married on June 3, 1955 for time and eternity in the S alt Lak e LDS Temple.
She and her loving husband Jay of 59 years are the parents of 5 childre n . Laurie (Mike) Cline, Robynn (Dick) Thiot, Ric (Kathy) Birks, Elaine L aw rence and Jeffrey (Jenn) Birks. Glenys was blessed with 15 wonderful G ran dchildren and now has 23 Great Grandchildren. Glenys had a way of mak in g them all feel like they were her favorite .
Home was Glenys' favorite place to be surrounded by those she loved. Not h ing would make her happier than to have unexpected visits from her fami ly . Grandchildren always knew right where her treasure baskets of toys w er e and would head that way after a tight squeeze .
Glenys was very talented and crafty. She had a love for making everythi n g beautiful around her. She enjoyed making porcelain dolls, sewing an d cr ocheting.
Glenys was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints a n d loved serving in the church. She served in multiple callings but he r fa vorites were Cub Scouts, Homemaking and serving as an Ordinance Work er i n the Jordan River Temple. She and Jay served a mission to the India na, I ndianapolis Mission in 1990-91. This mission proved to be a legac y for mi ssionaries in her family. All ten of her grandsons and two of he r grandda ughters also served missions and could count on a weekly lette r from he r with a crisp $5.00 bill.
Glenys' family will be her legacy for generations to come. She had a str o ng testimony of the Gospel and a Love for our Savior Jesus Christ. Sh e al ways knew how to find the best in us all. She was one classy and sas sy wo man and would never be seen without her lipstick or her beads on.
There will be a viewing on Sunday evening from 6-8 p.m. at Goff Mortua r y at 8090 S. State and again Monday from 9:45-10:45 a.m. prior to funer a l services at 11 a.m. at the Sandy Hills Ward Chapel on 8600 South 150 0 E ast in Sandy. Interment will be at Wasatch Lawn Cemetery. - See mor e at : http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/deseretnews/obituary.aspx?n=gleny s-bir ks&pid=171516686&fhid=10581#sthash.W8PldJaB.dpuf
