Obituary:
Our mother, Dona H. Ison, age 97, died of natural causes on November 2 0 , 2012 at the home of her daughter, Jana Ison Nelson.
On June 30, 1915, her father, Augustus Hansen, wrote in his journal, " W e got a baby girl." Mom was the 3rd of 12 children born to Augustus & L yd ia Whipple Hansen in the tiny town of Lakeside, AZ.
Mom grew up and began working her way through college by waitressing, co o king at a logging camp, cleaning the college president's home, and assi st ing mothers after they gave birth.
During those years, two serious boyfriends presented themselves. She cho s e the long-legged, red-headed Joseph Ison because of his integrity, wo r k ethic, and devotion to the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Mom and dad were m ar ried in the St. George LDS Temple on July 11, 1940 and moved to Twin F all s, ID on their honeymoon.
Eventually his job with Swift & Company poultry processors took them t o C aldwell, ID where they bought their own poultry farm. While Dad suppo rte d his family with the egg production of 10,000 hens, mom began to rai se c hicks of her own.
Six daughters arrived over the years. We girls had a mom determined to s c hool us in the homemaking arts. Thus our home became a hands-on incubat o r for cooking, sewing, canning, bread-making, cleanliness, thrift, an d or ganization. She also prayed nightly that somewhere in the world othe r par ents were raising wonderful sons to marry her daughters.
As we each grew up and flew the coop, mom's hobbies turned to quilting , e gg & cake decorating, porcelain baby dolls, dried flower pressing an d mos t of all, grandbabies.
In partnership with dad's calling as an LDS Stake President, she welcom e d LDS Apostles and future Prophets to our dining room table. She serve d w ith dad in the Boise LDS Temple for 20 years.
She survived breast cancer and heart disease in her 80s, but she could n o t avoid dementia in her late 90s. Though it robbed her of her memory , i t never took away her smile, graciousness, and sparkly-eyed delight o ve r a new great-grandbaby.
We girls are forever grateful for the skills she taught us and our husba n ds should thank their lucky stars for the whole wheat bread recipe sh e pa ssed on to us.
Mom and dad were married 67 years before his passing in December 2007. S i nce that time we girls give gratitude to caregivers, LaVora Sutton an d Ke ndra Browning, whose service allowed mom to live in her home until t hre e days before her death.
Mom is survived by five daughters: Jocile Wilson (Richard), of Bountifu l , Utah, Angela Nielson (Noel), of Preston, ID, Lora Dawn McKinley, of M er idian, ID, Jana Nelson (Kevin), of Nampa, ID and Kristen Carson (John) , o f Brownsburg, IN. We also claim two adopted sisters, Loretta Hales an d Na n Arnold. Other survivors include mom's sister, Loma Jones, of Hyrum , UT ; 28 grandchildren; and 43 great-grandchildren.
Along with dad, she was preceded in death by daughter and son-in-law, He r tha and Noel Hales, 10 siblings, and one great-grandchild.
Funeral services will be held at 10:00 a.m. Saturday, November 24, 2 0 1 2 a t the Caldwell Idaho East LDS Stake Center, 11792 Linden Rd. Cald we ll.

Obituary:
Raymond Keith Steele began his earthly mission, September 18, 1952, i n L a Mesa, California, born the third of three children to Parley Keit h Stee le and Julia Boyter Steele. Our dear sweet brother, son, father, g randfat her, nephew, cousin, uncle, and friend passed away Thursday, Ma y 7, 2020 , at the age of 67.
In 1955, when Ray was three years old, he and his family moved to Salt L a ke City, Utah and lived in a quaint store-front home called, "Keith's H ob by House". Ray joined the family in the hobby business, loving life an d g aining a wide circle of friends. At the age of five, he was stockin g shel ves with propellers, paint and balsa wood while waiting on custome rs. H e lived in a kid's dream world, filled with miniature cars, trains , boats , and airplanes, never deciding which genre he loved best. Tradit ionally , every Thanksgiving Day, the family decorated the store in prepa ratio n f or Christmas. They were each given a showcase to create a nic e displa y with the promise of a prize for the one who did the best job . Ray alway s won!
Ray was baptized and confirmed a member of the Church of Jesus Chris t o f Latter-day Saints, September 30, 1960, in the Salt Lake Tabernacl e on T emple Square, having a strong testimony of the gospel and great fa ith i n his Heavenly Father's plan.
When Ray was ten years old, in 1962, he and his family moved to a love l y home on Lake Street, filling his life with added friends and awesom e ne w experiences. As Ray grew, he participated in all sports, playing b aseba ll, basketball, and skiing the snow-laden slopes. In high school h e parti cipated on the swim team, and the tennis team. He was an amazin g marksman . Liberty Park was his haven for ice skating, fishing, and fly ing model a irplanes. He had a zest for hiking and boating. We remember h is laughte r and enthusiasm, playing hard and working even harder, litera lly embraci ng the great outdoors as if it was his first and last time t o see its gra ndeur.
Ray attended Sumner Elementary, Lincoln Jr. High, and graduated from Sou t h High School, Class of '71. For many years, Ray volunteered to read a n d record book-readings at the blind center, never imagining he would o n e day lose his own eyesight. Ray loved music and played the Hawaiian st ee l guitar. He sang in the school choir and was an avid Boy Scout.
Ray and his good friend, Barrie Brewer, were unicycle buddies. It wasn ' t long before the entire neighborhood followed suit. They proficientl y le arned to ride and performed their skills in the Thirty-first Ward Ro adsho w of the Salt Lake Park Stake, June 30, 1965.
On a new family adventure in the summer of 1970, it was decided to try " m otel business" in Anaheim, CA, with an adjoining café. Ray and Barrie t ho ught of "sunshine" and "surfing" and planned to remodel the café and r u n it by themselves. How hard could that be... frying eggs, bacon and se rv ing hot cocoa? Little did they know. Per Barrie, "Our feeble attempt t o r emodel and operate the adjoining café had all the makings for a class i c T V sitcom. Wow... the lessons learned could have filled volumes." Fi rs t and foremost, they learned surfing was NOT for them.
After the "motel days", Ray returned to Salt Lake City with his family a n d lived in a lovely home on Wasatch Drive, still spending most of his t im e at the Hobby House (1955-1983). He attended the Monument Park Ward , ser ving in many capacities. He found a new interest in construction wo rk. Th is combined his yen for exercise, fresh air, sunshine, and the abi lity t o be creative, all in one, in his quest for life outdoors.
Upon graduating from high school, he was called to serve in the Florid a S outh Mission, 1972-1974. This surprised him because of his fluency i n th e German language. Two weeks into his mission, he was able to teac h the g ospel to a large non-English speaking German family. Later, he ta ught ano ther large family. So many converts, in fact, that a German spea king bran ch was organized.
After Ray's mission, he returned home and fulfilled his life-long ambiti o n of becoming a pilot, certified as an airline transport pilot, with mu lt i-engine, commercial, and instrument ratings. He was skilled and maste rfu l at his craft. He flew air ambulance for both Life Flight and AirMe d fo r many years; instrumental in aiding and saving countless lives. Dur ing i nclement weather, he always marveled how the skies would magicall y open , allowing him to transport through a shaft of light and clear vis ibility . He was an amazing flight instructor and owned and operated hi s own flig ht school and charter operation, called Pro Flight. He flew Le ar Jets, M U 2 Marquis, Beechcraft B-200s with over 12,000 hours, to hi s credit. Ra y was honored to receive the "Pilot of the Year" award by th e Utah Pilot s Association.
February 5, 1976, he married his dear sweet friend, Edith Elisa Smith , i n the Provo Utah Temple, uniting his family for time and all eternity . Th ey were blessed with three children, Shayne Steele, Rondi (Shaun) St erzer , and Kari (Todd) Overson. Ray adored his precious grandchildren, G age, Z ack, Jurnee, Grayson, Zayden, and Lachlan. Ray is survived by thi s beauti ful family, along with his brother, Clifford (Gloria) Steele an d his sist er, DeLores Steele Silfvast; many nieces, nephews and cousins . Preceded i n death by his parents, Keith and Julia Steele, and niece, C indy Steele.
When Ray's health started to wane, he faced life fearlessly with his str o ng will and great determination, forging through seemingly endless tria ls . Ray lived more life in his first 30 years, than most people do in 10 0 . He fought the battles valiantly and never relented to defeat. He an d hi s family will be forever grateful for the donors that gave him prolo nge d life with two kidney transplants. Indeed, he witnessed miracles. W e wil l remember him as being kind, tender, loving, methodical and astute ; alwa ys showing great understanding and compassion for those around him . He wa s happiest when surrounded by his family and friends, along wit h his loya l companion pets that would never leave his side. We will reme mber his ex ample and emulate his strength as we strive to smile throug h our sorrow s at his passing. Until we meet again... fly high and higher , on and onwa rd. We love you, Raymond.
A celebration of Ray's life will be held at a later time.

Blaine Snow Clements is our father, husband, grandfather, great-grandfat h er, brother, son, and friend. He departed this life on May 21, 2017, be lo ved by his wife and family. His life began humbly on August 9, 1925, i n t he obscure, mining town of Park City, Utah .
He was the third child of loving parents, Anna Snow and Thomas Earl Clem e nts, the local dentist. Along with his two sisters and older brother, H ow ard, Blaine lived a near idyllic Childhood, full of adventure and memo rab le mischief in the backdrop of colorful community characters. In tha t clo se, diverse community, Blaine's natural talents and abilities gre w and fl ourished. He and his younger sister, Betty Lou, tap danced at co mmunity g atherings. Blaine and his siblings played instruments in the Pa rk City Hi gh School marching band under the inspirational direction of t he local "M usic Man", Byron Jones.
Blaine was captain of the basketball team and was an all-stat e quarterb a ck on the football team, president of the senior class, lead in the sch oo l musical ("Words and Music") and was the valedictorian of the class o f 1 943. After serving in the military during World War II and then gradu atin g from the University of Utah, he met and fell in love with the beau tifu l young woman who would be his life-long love and eternal companion , Jacq uelyn Woodruff. They married in the Salt Lake Temple on August 20 , 1948 .
Blaine graduated as valedictorian of his dental school class at the Coll e ge of Physicians and Surgeons in San Francisco and obtained his orthodo nt ic degree at the University of Washington. Through talent and hard wor k , he became a distinguished orthodontist technically exacting, innovati v e in his approach to difficult cases, and with an artistic eye that se t h im apart in a growing, competitive profession. He and Jackie create d a lo ving, peaceful home in Atherton, CA where they welcomed two sons a nd tw o daughters, and gave them every opportunity for education and th e space , time, and resources, to develop their talents and abilities .
Blaine found time to play golf with his sons and dear friend, Keith Ande r son, beautify his expansive yard, hone his photography skills, enjoy h i s extensive music library, serve in church assignments, and socialize w it h friends and work associates. Through all of the achievement and busi nes s of liv ng, the Gospel of Jesus Christ was woven into the fabric o f Blai ne and Jackie's lives. Though not outwardly preached, the gospel p rincipl es were exemplified in daily acts of kindness and service, provid ing a so lid foundation for a happy home.
One of Blaine's quiet but important life accomplishments was his love a n d support for Jackie's single mother, Evelyn Ballif Woodruff, who live d n ear their home in California for decades. In Blaine's retirement, h e cont inued his involvement with professional organizations, served on t h e U o f U Alumni board, engaged in genealogical work, tended to his pet un ias and impatiens gardens, began oil painting at the age of 75, and su ppo rted and encouraged his grandchildren in their pursuits.

He publi she d for family distribution a book of his paintings, and, as Blaine's h ealt h began to decline, he Completed his life history, " A Life Well Liv ed" , with the technical help of his devoted caregiver, Linda Timothy. Th is b eautiful volume is a treasure to all of Blaine's posterity. In his l ast y ears and days, the pace of Blaine's life slowed and eventually narr owed t o his bed and those who cared for him. But as his body failed him , the es sential elements of Blaine's spirit remained -- his gentleness a nd innat e kindness, his sense of humor, his gratitude, his love for fami ly and fo r Heavenly Father, all came through a smile, a twinkle in his e yes, a squ eeze of the hand, a kiss on the cheek. We who love Blaine, Dad , Popa, fee l privileged to have been part of his "Well Lived Life."

Daniel B. Bushnell - Meadow - Funeral for Daniel B. Bushnell, 18, who di e d on Saturday, Dec 7, at his home in Meadow, will be held in the Meado w W ard Chapel Tuesday at 12:30 p.m.
He was born in Fillmore, Utah June 22, 1862, son of Elizabeth Brockban k a nd John Bushnell who emigrated from England in 1852.
Mr. Bushnell was a High Priest and an active Church member all his lif e . Surviving him are his widow, Susan Dearden Bushnell, eight children : Mr s. Ezra Dame, Leland M. Bushnell, and Everet M. Bushnell of Meadow ; and M rs. C. Orval Stott, Mrs. Mark Stephenson, Mrs. Blake Stephenson , Dan D. B ushnell and Alonzo D. Bushnell of Salt Lake City; the followin g brother s and sister, Mrs. Alison Stott, Howard B. Bushnell, and Joshu a B. Bushne ll, of Meadow; 30 grand children, and six great-grandchildren .
Alonzo (Lon) Davies Bushnell was born on November 18, 1905 in Meadow, Mi l lard, Utah to Daniel Brockbank Bushnell and Susan Dearden. While he se rv ed his mission to California as a young man, he met the lovely Doroth y Jo sephine Cox. They both served faithfully as missionaries, however u pon t he completion of her mission he sent Dorothy a letter requesting th at sh e not make any major changes in her life until he was released fro m his m ission. When he returned home, they began the courting process a nd foun d that they were very much in love and well suited for each other . Lon a nd Dorothy were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on June 28th, 192 7 .
They started out their marriage in a 2 room house in Meadow and Lon's fa m ily was very helpful to them. Lon would herd sheep west of town and Do ro thy would join him in the summers. Because herding sheep did not allo w L on to be home for weeks, he was not particularly fond of the job an d ofte n looked for better opportunities. However, jobs and money wer e scarc e during this time.
A job as a fireman on a train hauling ore became available to Lon in El y , Nevada so he packed up his family to be with him while he worked ther e . They endured bad living conditions. During this time, a daughter w a s born to them on June 1st, 1928 in Meadow, Boneta Josephine. When Lo n w as laid off from his fireman job, he and Dorothy and Boneta (Bonnie ) pack ed everything that they owned in their old broken down model T For d and d rove to Salt Lake City to live with Dorothy's family. They wer e guided b y the hand of Providence because their car got them where the y were goin g and never ran again. They lived in very humble circumstanc es, but fel t very blessed. Lon was able to make a livelihood by haulin g cattle. Th eir second daughter was born to them at this time in Holy C ross Hospita l - Donna Dean Bushnell. The four of them then made anothe r move back t o Meadow to stay with family, while Lon sent to Southern Ut ah to sell pea ches. He did well at fruit selling, so the family was the n able to retur n to Salt lake City. At this time, Lon was able to fin d a job with Clove r Leaf Dairy delivering milk to stores and restaurants . He left at 4 a m and walked a distance to work, because they had no ca r .
One day, an opportunity to buy an apartment house store came to Lon an d D orothy. Both of them felt that this was a move that they should mak e i n order to provide some financial relief. Dorothy ran the store fro m 7a m to 10 pm every day, including Sundays. It proved to be a good inv estme nt, so Lon was able to quit his job at the Dairy and help with th e store . They were especially grateful that now they could stop operati ng the s tore on Sundays and now they could attend church as a family. T hey als o bought a refrigerated meat counter and Grandpa Cox taught Lon h ow to cu t meat.
With the store no longer open on Sundays, Lon was able to be more full y i nvolved in Church activities and he was able to serve a Stake mission . T hen a great opportunity came his way in the form of a job offer work ing a t Associated Foods. This was became a huge blessing and better sou rce o f income.
One Saturday when Lon was at work, he lost his speech ability and the u s e of his arms and legs. He had suffered a stroke and because of his hi g h blood pressure, he was given very little hope for recovery. 22 mont h s later, Lon suffered another stroke and loss of memory. In the hospit al , Lon was given a blessing and then his memory registered better and h e w as able to remember grocery orders. Truly a miracle had occurred. H owev er, the doctors cautioned Lon about going to work again - that it w oul d kill him.
Fortunately, a job opportunity came to Lon and Dorothy to do baby photog r aphy in the San Francisco Bay area. This was a totally new venture fo r t his couple and they prayerfully considered it. After years in Utah , Lon , Dorothy and Donna made the big move to the Bay area to make thi s opport unity work. Dorothy and Donna ran the business and Lon was abl e to help . Amid the rigorous schedule of doing baby pictures for sever al hospita ls, Dorothy and Lon were able to enjoy several trips together ; to Hawai i and an Alaskan cruise. They also enjoyed visits from Bonnie 's famil y - Keith and their seven children, who would visit from Missour i. In 19 73, Lon's health took a serious turn for the worse. His fee t were swell ing and his veins were very dark. Doctors wanted to amputat e his legs be cause of blood clots. It was a difficult decision to submi t to this. Ho wever, on August 20th, Lon suffered a massive stroke and n ever regained c onsciousness. He passed beyond the veil on that day, le aving behind hi s beloved Dorothy, Bonnie and her husband Keith, Donna, a nd seven grandch ildren. Lovingly and respectfully submitted by Sandr a Lynn Williams Bec k | Bushnell, Alonzo Davies (I4731)

Obituary:
After a long illness, Dr. Charles (Chuck) Bellamy passed away on Monda y A ugust 19th. Born in Southern California, he was raised and nurtured b y hi s loving parents, Charles and Ivalou Bellamy. His mother often aske d hi m throughout his Childhood, “Do you know why we were put on earth?” . Hi s reply was inevitably, “No, mom.” and he hoped that there would the n b e some fundamentally important revelation. However, her answer was al way s “To help others.” Chuck lived this out through his actions and word s no t only with his family and church callings, but also with his friend s an d coworkers as well.
Chuck loved nature and all the beauty it possessed which led him down t h e path to become a coleopterist. The study of beetles would enrapture h i m and lead him into a career that would see him become one of the world ’ s foremost authorities on jewel beetles. Chuck studied and collected je we l beetles on almost every continent, and passed on his knowledge and l ov e for these animals in books and journals. He was well-known and well- res pected by all his colleagues and peers.
Chuck and his wife Rose traveled as often as possible. Memorable trips i n cluded London, Paris, Australia, the southwestern United States, and Ba ja , California. The couple also had the experience of living overseas i n So uth Africa for 7 years, during which time they learned about other c ultur es and people.
Chuck was an avid sports fan, in particular his passion for Lakers baske t ball and USC football were unparalleled. If a Lakers game was being pla ye d, Chuck was watching it, no matter where he was.
Chuck was employed by the California Department of Food and Agricultur e a s an Insect Biosystematist, which was a perfect fit for him and his t alen ts. Every day there were beetle samples that crossed his desk and h e help ed protect California’s agriculture and environment by utilizing h is vas t knowledge of the group to determine whether or not they were pes ts of c oncern. He was well liked and respected by his colleagues for hi s contrib utions to the Plant Pest Diagnostics Center.
Chuck is preceded in death by his parents, Charles and Ivalou Bellamy . H e is survived by his wife Rose; his two step-sons Nathan and Jessie D avis ; his grandchildren Austin, Hayden and Brooklyn Davis, his sister Ga yle S altz; brother in law Joel Saltz; niece and nephew Tara and Camero n Saltz ; cousins Sandra Turner and Patsy Beck.

Obituary:
Ann Halgren Wiest Bushnell Smith passed away of natural causes January 2 1 , 2020. Even in the last days of her temporal progression, Ann display e d the grace, thoughtfulness, and a cheerful laugh that served her and o th ers so well. She had the ability to light up a room and with that sam e il lumination, ignite the soul of the individual.
Born in 1925 in Ogden, Utah to Sarah Alice Aldous and Joseph Halgren, A n n was raised in very humble circumstances during the depression in Corn is h, Utah; the youngest of six brothers and sisters. In her early teens , he r family moved to Salt Lake City where she graduated from East High . Sh e attended BYU where she was part of the first women’s cheer organiz atio n that later became known as the Cougarettes.
While in Provo, she met and married Dr. Clinton Wiest in the Salt Lake T e mple, April 20, 1949. They settled in Provo in the “Tree Streets,” jus t e ast of the BYU campus, where they raised five children.
As couples, the Wiest family and the Bushnell family (also from the “Tr e e Streets” in Provo) enjoyed traveling as well as serving in their Chur c h together. In 1992, Clint passed away and left Ann a widow at 65 year s y oung. One of Ann’s best friends, Lucille Bushnell, also suffered a pr emat ure passing. So not long afterwards, what was once a deep friendshi p beca me a loving romance and Merrill and Ann were married in 1998 in th e Moun t Timpanogos Temple. They enjoyed 11 years of a blended marriage.
In 2009, Merrill suddenly passed, leaving Ann a relatively young widow a g ain. Getting married again was the furthest thing in her mind until a w id ower, (Yes, also from the “Tree Streets”), Dr. Thales Smith, came int o he r life. They eloped to the Draper Temple in 2011. What a wonderful w ay t o live the twilight of your years with people that fill your life wi th jo y and love!
Coming from simple beginnings, Ann always looked toward the future wit h h ope and anticipation. This was her charm and talent. When things seem ed i nsurmountable, she would say, “This too will pass.” And her pretty , blu e eyes would twinkle with anticipation for better outcomes. This fa ith wa s rooted in the gospel of Jesus Christ, she firmly followed and be lieved . She taught her children about the gift of the Atonement and ho w we ca n use it to better our lives.
The restored gospel of The Church of Jesus Christ was central to her li f e and most important after her family. She knows that God lives and sh e l oves her Savior. And she wanted all of her children, both fraternall y an d blended, to enjoy the same eternal blessings she cherished. She ta ugh t the greatest joy on this earth comes from unconditional love and si len t service to our fellow man.
While serving as her bishop, her husband Clint called her as the ward yo u ng women’s president. She questioned his inspiration, but accepted. Th i s began a lifelong association with young women on both the ward and st ak e level. She was called as stake young women’s president once and war d yo ung women president three times—the last time at the age of 71! He r las t girls’ camp was in her 76th year. The constant theme of her lif e was co nnecting with the one. She was an anchor to many young women an d was alwa ys reaching out to the one who felt on the outside or disengag ed.
One of the more amazing outcomes of her life is her ability to love, ada p t and improve on her personal relationships. She was beyond blessed t o ma rry three outstanding, yet uniquely different men. All three had the ir ta lents, intelligence, and capabilities. But the common denominator w as the y all had a firm testimony of the Savior, they all had the innat e abilit y to connect with people, and they all loved Ann. She complement ed each o ne of her husbands and helped make their lives and the lives o f their chi ldren more full. There aren’t too many people on this earth w ho can clai m that blessing.
She is survived by her children, Annette (Ron) Perry, Doug (Cheri) Wies t , Gary (Sharon) Wiest, Mark (Dana) Wiest, and Steven (Melissa) Wiest , i n addition to 38 grandchildren and 41 great-grandchildren. She was bl esse d with two additional “Bonus Families” with first, Bruce (Karie) Bus hnell , Ned (Marianne) Bushnell, and Pam (David) Price, with their 30 gra ndchil dren and 28 great-grandchildren. And completing the circle are Pat ricia J anssen, Thales Jr. (Laura) Smith, Sandy (Steve) Francom, Stephani e (Lee ) Berge, Steve (Klyss) Smith, Lisa (Jeff) Elder, and Greg Smith; 2 5 grand children and 71 great-grandchildren. For a total of 25 children , 93 grand children, and 140 great-grandchildren. Whew!! She had an incre dible capac ity to know and love them all.
She is preceded in death by three husbands: Dr. Clinton Wiest, Merrill B u shnell, and Dr. Thales Smith; and five brothers and sisters: Joe (Berni ce ) Halgren, David (Margo) Halgren, Leon (Barbara) Halgren, Aldous (Russ ) L arsen, and Alice Roberts.

Bonnie (Bonz) K Whipple was born on October 9th 1956 in Salt Lake City , U tah. Bonnie passed away Wednesday May 12th, 2021 at 3:00 p.m. peacefu lly , in her home with her sister by her side. She was 64 years old. Sh e is a t rest after a long battle of fighting her second round of cance r (she fo ught and won the first time in 2006).
Bonnie was the sixth baby Whipple out of nine siblings. She loved to spe n d time outside, particularly when rock hounding with her dad. Bonnie gr e w into a unique young adult with a passion for gardening and good food . H er early career was in the food industry where she grew to become a w onde rful chef.
Bonnie was an artist of many traits and grew a successful art business w i th her sister, Dianne Dalton. They would often refer to Bonnie as the m ec hanical artist, who would engineer very detailed and complicated artwo r k such as jewelry, elk hide drums, and fusion glass (etc.) and Diann e a s the creative artist who would design their digital logos, bring ins pira tion for new projects and paint beautiful oil and watercolor paintin gs. T ogether, they traveled and sold their art work for over 30 years a t varie ty of shows and venues from mountain man rendezvous to festivals . They la ter dialed in their designs selling mainly Bonnie’s handmade on e-of-a-kin d drums along with her glass fusion art and Dianne’s paintin g s and card s only at fine art festivals.
When Bonnie wasn’t on the road, or preparing for the next show she was o f ten tending to her very large and fruitful backyard garden. She gre w a la rge variety of vegetables but many of us remember her tomatoes ver y wel l - she was always generous at sharing the fruits of her labor. A s thing s slowed down, and Bonnie became sick, she still tended to her ga rden a s best she could up until last year, and continued to make glass e arrings , decorative bowls, and her latest creation beautiful fusion glas s c lock s; al l self-taught- truly a gifted human.
Bonnie had a special place in her heart for babies, little children an d a nimals. If she could give them a treat, and get on their good side th en i t would truly make her happy. She was very playful and loved a goo d laugh . She became well known on the road and in Salt Lake for her dru m making , and in her own neighborhood as a friend to many of her neighbo rs. She w as giving of her high quality food and her art. At Christmas he r gifts we re always perfectly packaged with love and care, her holiday s eason begin ning in September so she had time to get her hand made gift s completed. S he was a unique, thoughtful, meticulous, wild spirited, fu nny and a lovea ble person, and she will be truly be missed by many.

Obituary:
BOUNTIFUL - Beth entered heaven rejoicing on January 8, 2005. She was bo r n November 7, 1925 to Junius and Vida Duncan. She had many fond memori e s of her Childhood spent in LaVerkin, Utah and loved to reminisce abou t t hem with her sister Grace. It was there she had her only forma l musi c tr aining, which consisted of six private lessons. Beth was asked to se rve a s Sunday School organist at the age of 12 and continued blessing li ves wi th music as long as she lived. The family moved to Ogden when Bet h was 16 . Her musical abilities were quickly recognized and she was aske d to acco mpany the orchestra and choirs at Ogden High during her senio r year. Sh e seldom made it through an entire school day without being ca lled out o f class for a rehearsal of some kind. It was because of her gr eat talen t at sight-reading music that she met Nolan Taylor, a red haire d Irish te nor, the day following her 17th birthday, November 8, 1942. No lan claime d that date as his birthday from then on, because he said he h ad never re ally lived until he met Beth. Thus began an eternal love stor y and a unio n that brought joy to them and to countless others through t heir beautifu l music.
They were married in the Salt Lake Temple on Jun e 8, 1944. Beth was a " d o-it-yourself girl" and loved finding creative solutions to everyday ch al lenges. When her family was young, she took in se wing to earn additio na l income. She used the excess fabric from those projects to sew clothi n g for her children. She practiced frugality in every possible applicati on . She never used packaged mixes in her cooking. She cut and permed he r ow n hair. She bottled everything known to modern man. She used every w akin g moment to accomplish something worthwhile. Her hands were never id le. B eth was the epitome of compassionate service. Each Monday when th e childr en arrived home from school, the aroma of fresh baked bread fill ed the ai r. She would be waiting with a warm wrapped loaf in her hands a nd allowe d at least one Child to accompany her as she delivered the trea t to a nei ghbor. It was such a blessing in young lives to feel the tru e joy of shar ing and service. It is a lesson not forgotten with the pass age of time.
Beth touched innumerable hearts over the years as she worked for Larki n a nd Sons and later for Lindquist's Ogden Mortuary. Her deep feelings f or t he Savior and her ability to express those feelings through her musi c com forted those who mourned. She taught us that when we serve the Savi or b y serving others He is pleased. She lived as she taught and played e ach a nd every note for Him, and thus blessed us all in the process. Sh e neve r had any calling other than music in the Church. She never taugh t a clas s, gave a talk, or presided over an organization, yet she ha d a profoun d influence on every life she touched. We honor her and bles s her for he r loving example of a true follower of Christ. After Nolan d ied, Beth mar ried her lifelong friend Clark Webb and lived in San Dieg o for six years . As her health declined, her greatest desire was to com e home and spen d her last days with her family. She returned to Utah i n October and wa s able to have intimate time with her posterity throug h the holidays. Sh e expressed her complete joy at having done so. She lo ved being home wit h those who loved her, yet she was anxious to be reuni ted with her lovin g Nolan. They are now once again making beautiful musi c together. The hea vens celebrate, as do we. Beth is survived by three l oving children; Mari beth (Mark) Bower, Murray; Laura (Michael) Sanders , Holladay; and Fred (D iane) Taylor, Roy; nine grandchildren and six g r eat grandchildren. She i s also survived by her sister Grace (Karl) Chu rch, Midvale, and brother R obert (Verda) Stewart of St. George. Funera l services will be held 11 a m Wed., January 12, 2005 at Lindquist's Boun tiful Mortuary, 727 N. 400 E . Friend s and family may visit at that mort uary one hour prior to servic es. Burial, Bountiful City Cemetery. Becaus e she was always so practical , Beth requested that rather than sending f lowers which would quickly fre eze in the January chill, donations be mad e in her memory to the LDS Perp etua l Education Fund, LDS Humanitarian F und or Primary children's Medica l Center. | Duncan, Beth (I33637)

Boyd Vernell Whipple passed away June 30, 2013 in St. George, Utah. He w a s born August 17, 1933 in Farmington, New Mexico to William Wilford Whi pp le and Beatrice Thayne. He was the youngest of 6 children, Walden, LaR ee , Velda, Verland, and Cale.
Boyd's mother passed away when he was two years old, and his brothers a n d sisters worked hard to keep the farm going and to take care of each o th er. His older sister LaRee taught him phonetics and he learned to rea d b y hoarding his older brother's comic books. His best memories of th e far m were his father's roses and his dog, Tatters. He often said tha t he hop ed Tatters would be there to greet him in Heaven.
During the war, his father left the farm and moved to Las Vegas for wor k . Boyd liked to tell stories about riding his bicycle to deliver paper s , and how he would use the money to go to the movies with his brothers , V erland and Cale. His father passed away not long after moving and Boy d wa s left without parents at the age of 10. His older married brother , Walde n, and his married sisters, LaRee and Velda helped to take care o f him, b ut he ended up moving a lot. Since he was large in stature he co uld ge t a man's job, and he would go wherever he could thumb a ride.
Boyd attended several high schools because of his circumstances, but h e w as a good student and a great athlete. He was student body presiden t an d quarterback of his football team. He also excelled at track and ba sketb all. He was being recruited for college football when he sustaine d a spor ts injury that ended his possibilities of a football career an d it also k ept him out of military service.
After graduating from high school, he attended Brigham Young Universit y . He would go to school for as long as his money would last and then he ' d go to work to get enough money for another semester. Despite his chal le nges he also served a religious mission in Uruguay and Paraguay. He ha d b een assigned to Tahiti, but the ships to Tahiti were on strike, so h e wa s reassigned to South America.
During his mission the elders had a basketball team that competed nation a lly, and Boyd was so well known in the country that people would yell o u t his name when they saw him in the streets. A famous doctor offered t o o perate on his knee for free to be associated with Boyd's notoriety. B oy d made life time friends while he served the Lord.
When he returned home, he continued his education at BYU. During one o f h is working periods he was driving through Las Vegas on his way to Lo s Ang eles. He had gassed up the car and with his last nickel he bough t a soda . As he turned to leave, a man bumped into him and spilt the dri nk. Boy d looked up to see who had done this to him, and it was a frien d from th e mission field. The friend talked Boyd into staying in Las Veg as and off ered to help him find work. Little did he know that he would a lso help hi m find the woman that he would be married to for 51 years.
After 10 years of struggling to finish college, Boyd was in the first ge n eration of his family to attend college and receive a bachelors degree . H e moved his family to California where he was hired by the world's la rges t accounting firm. He later went to work for the IRS, in the Hollywo od di vision, where he audited movie stars. He accepted a temporary contr act wi th the State Department and moved his wife, Nola and his children , Lisa a nd Brad to Guatemala. Temporary seldom is, and for 15 years he t raveled t he globe as a U.S. Diplomat. He retired at the age of 51 afte r receivin g accommodations from 4 different Presidents of the United Sta tes for hi s accomplished service to his country.
Boyd always felt that the State Department was just a vehicle for his se r vice to the Lord and the Church. He helped the church grow everywher e h e went. He hesitated to transfer to Kenya because at the time there w as n o Mormon church there, but he went anyway. For many years he preside d ove r family sacrament meetings in his living room, and he eventually w as ins trumental in getting the church started there. He served as the fi rst Bra nch President in Kenya. He had wonderful stories of the faith o f those me mbers. He blessed the first baby that was born into the churc h in Kenya , and a young man that was baptized ended up serving a missio n in Los Ang eles where Boyd was after he retired.
Boyd had a passion for genealogy. He had a theater room filled with char t s and books and documents of his ancestors and family. He is now wher e h e can be with those who passed on before him and be reunited with al l th e ancestors that he knew so well through his study and research. H e was w ell read and could speak in detail on almost any subject. He spok e four l anguages fluently and often read the scriptures in those languag es.
Boyd served the Lord all his life. He not only served a mission in Sou t h America, he was also a Stake missionary, a Lost Sheep missionary, a n d a Spanish speaking Service missionary in St. George. He served as a B is hop in Guatemala and in the Mission Presidency in Colombia.
Boyd passed away unexpectedly in his sleep on June 30, 2013. He had ju s t celebrated his 51st wedding anniversary, his 50th Father's Day, an d h e was only a few weeks away from his 80th birthday.
Boyd started out in humble beginnings, and was not deterred by his hards h ips and struggles as he built his life into a full and interesting mort a l experience. He was survived by his wife, his two children, and four g ra ndchildren. He will be missed for his kindness and generosity.
