Granny was her favorite.Our dear sweet mom retur ne d home to hug her dad on October 31, 2012, just like she had always ta lke d about. Family was everything to her and her entire life was dedicat ed t o serving them as well as everyone she came in contact with. She wou ld ne ver leave anyone hungry. Over the years she baked more cookies tha n mos t professional bakers. She was a devoted wife and mother and deepl y love d her men. She would joke with people that she lived with 7 of the m. Mo m was born in Payson, Utah to Jordan Albert Law and Jessie Lutish a Clar k Law and had great memories of her young childhood there. Aroun d the ag e of 12 she moved to Garden Grove California. That is where sh e met her s weetheart, David. After falling head over heels in love, sh e waited for h im while he served a mission. Her life of complete devote d service starte d on December 11, 1958, when they were married in the Lo s Angeles Temple . After marrying, she moved to Utah to start her new lif e and lived in Or em, Mapleton and St. George.Mom's entire life was devot ed to service, sta rting with her family and church and then extending t o everyone she met . She particularly loved serving in the Young Women' s program of the chur ch. She would greet everyone with a smile and was a lways willing to hel p in any way she could. Anyone that knew her for mor e than a couple of da ys was the recipient of a meal or cookies.She belie ved that every momen t of life should be an adventure and loved to lear n and discover new thin gs. She got her first computer this last year an d it opened up a whole ne w world for her. She loved to learn new thing s and was self taught in mos t things that she did in life.
