Neola Zahner McCall April 20, 1921-Aug. 31, 2005 Neola Zahner McCall passed into the loving arms of her husband and her Heavenly Father on Wednesday, Aug. 31, 2005. Wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, neighbor and friend, Neola engaged life with a genuine and inspiring love. She will be deeply missed by those whose lives she enriched throughout her 84 years of mortality. Most recently a 20-year resident of Centerville, Utah, Neola Zahner was born to Johann Gottlieb Zahner and Barbara Rosina Stucki on a beautiful spring day in Utah's Dixie, on April 20, 1921. She was the youngest of 21 children. She em-braced life and learning, graduating from BYU with a teaching degree and subsequently teaching in New Harmony, Utah. It was there she waited three long years for Walter, her fianc‚, while he served in the Armed Forces in World War II. Married in the St. George Temple, they settled in Las Vegas, Nev. There they raised three children. Judy, Gary, and Debbie. While in Las Vegas, Neola was responsible for starting the first government Head Start program in Las Vegas. She then started a Jewish kindergarten program for Temple Beth Sholom. Under her care as principal, it began as one classroom and flourished into eight. Its reputation was that of the best private kindergarten program in Las Vegas. It is still in existence today. She left Las Vegas because her husband was transferred to Utah with the Union Pacific Railroad. She has been a volunteer at Lakeview Hospital for more than 30 years and received awards for her outstanding work there. She could be found there every Wednesday afternoon, and it was there, on this Wednesday, where sudden heart failure took her from her friends and family here on Earth. Neola dearly loved her family and her temple work. She and Walter worked many years in the St. George and Salt Lake temples. More recently she served in the Bountiful Temple. Her legacy passes to her three children, Judy (Dennis) Knoles of Centerville, Utah; Gary (Colleen) McCall of Burley, Idaho; and Debbie (David) Bernhisel of Farmington, Utah. Her love will forever be revered by her 14 grandchildren and more than 16 great-grandchildren, as they recall a selfless woman who often taught lessons while pulling taffy, braiding egg bread, and loving without limits.

From that day forward Kris dedicated her life to her husband. She never wanted anything for herself but was always thinking of others. She was so unselfish. She learned to enjoy camping and going to the Greys River to fish and be with her family. Oh, how we will miss the trips to the cabin in Star Valley and to Jackson and Cody! Until her illness Kris served faithfully in many organizations but her favorite was the Primary. She served as Primary president, in the Young Women presidency and in the Relief Society. Kris always supported Robert in his callings and served hundreds of Navajo tacos to his young men. Kris loved to cook and built a great family tradition of Sunday dinner every week. Even with her illness and as sick as she was she wanted the family around her Sundays and all of the time. Kris loved being a mother and faithfully raised five children in the gospel of Jesus Christ. She always taught and supported three sons who became Eagle Scouts, received Duty to God awards, served full-time missions, and married in the temple. She raised her two daughters to become worthy daughters of God and how to be wonderful wives and mothers. Kris raised some very special children whom she dearly loves and is so proud of. Kris loved her special daughters-in-law and grandchildren. Her family was her life. May we all follow her example to be an eternal family. There is a huge hole in our hearts, but it will be filled by our love and memories of having the best, our beautiful Kris. Kris emulated the true love of Christ in her life and through her good works. She loved serving others and never said anything negative. She has been the perfect example in every way.
