- Obituary:
Salt Lake City, UT Deseret News, Tuesday, 25 Apr 2006; Richfield/Manti - Our beloved mother, sister, grandmother, and best friend, Thora Peterson Madsen Stott, of Richfield and formerly of Manti returned peacefully to her Heavenly Father on April 23, 2006, at the age of 85.
She was born May 11, 1920, in Fairview, Utah, to Edward Jestin and Maude Stewart Peterson. She married Burnell "Bud" Madsen, July 13, 1936. They were later sealed for time and eternity in the Manti Temple. He preceded her in death on February 19, 1979.
They were proud parents of a daughter and a son. She married Girven C. Stott (his ancestry to Benjamin Wiser Senior, his mother, Della Alberta Cunningham Stott, Mary Olive Wiser Cunningham, John McCormick Wiser, Samuel Wiser, Benjamin Wiser Senior), August 31, 1984, in a civil ceremony in the Salt Lake Temple.
He preceded her in death July 13, 1996. Thora was an active member of the LDS Church, having served in many positions. She served as President of Manti Senior Citizens, was active in DUP and the American Legion Auxiliary. She worked for many years on the Manti South Ward Banquet Committee, helping prepare many dinners, including those for the Mormon Miracle Pageant. She made many beautiful quilts, and was always busy binding a quilt for Relief Society. She was a beautiful and accomplished seamstress. She kept a "spotless" home and there was always a delicious meal prepared. She was meticulous about everything she did. She believed "anything worth doing was worth doing well." She seemed to possess an endless energy. She was a very thoughtful and caring lady, always doing for others. She had a smile and sense of humor, and still had a spirit of optimism in spite of the health problems she suffered in the past five years.
Thora is survived by her daughter, Mitzi (Kay) Peterson, Glenwood; son, Kim (Cletah) Madsen, Salt Lake City; sister, Floy (Mack) Munk, Murray; brother, Ted (Mary Beth) Peterson, Salt Lake City; five grandchildren; 17 great-grandchildren; two great-great-grandchildren. Preceded in death by parents; husbands, Bud and Girven; sisters, Theda, Maxie, Connie Rae. Funeral Services will be held Thursday, April 27, 2006, at 12:00 noon in the Richfield 10th LDS Ward Chapel, 985 S. 400 W. Friends may call at the ward Chapel on Thursday from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m.
Burial will be at 3:30 p.m. in the Manti City Cemetery on Thursday. Funeral directors: Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti.
