Ruby Christensen Talbot
#1 Jazz Fan!

     Our precious Mom, wife, grandmother and sister, Ruby Christensen Talbot,
peacefully passed away on Sunday, November 16, 2003. Grandma's pain and
suffering is finally over. She was lovingly known as "Grandma" by everyone.

     Grandma was born May 7, 1928, in Lynndyl, Utah to Joseph H. and Edna A.
Christensen. She was raised in a large, loving family in Oak City, Utah, and
graduated from Delta High.

     Mom married her eternal companion, Clark Talbot, in the Manti Temple on
March 21, 1951. They moved to Magna in 1955 where they raised two beautiful
children: Sharon and Elmer.

     Grandma loved to talk and visit and had many wonderful friends who loved
her dearly. She touched the hearts of everyone she met. Mom also loved
Disneyland, Hawaii, singing, playing the piano, shopping and driving her
"Jazzy". Most of all, she loved her family.  She was an active member of The
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and had a strong testimony and
love for the Gospel and her Savior. Grandma was an avid Utah Jazz fan and for
years never missed a game.  As a family we find peace and comfort in knowing
that Mom has "gone home" where she is free of pain, walking again, and
catching up on old times with her family and friends.

     Mom is survived by her husband of 52 years, Clark; daughter, Sharon; son,
Elmer and his wife Lisa; grandchildren, Amanda, Stewart, and Derek; brothers,
Merritt (Jackie) Christensen, Joseph (Rose) Christensen; sisters-in-law, Eda
Christensen, LaVon Christensen, and Betty Christensen; special grandkids,
Mufasa and Gizmo and her Utah Jazz family.

     She is preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Ralph, Glen, and
Grant; sisters, Ila, Margaret, and Nola and her special boy, Haun Chung.

     Funeral services will be held Thursday, November 20th, 11:00 a.m. at the
Pleasant Green Third Ward, 8739 West 3000 South, Magna, Utah. Friends and
family may call at the ward house on Wednesday, November 19th from 6   8 p.m.
and on Thursday from 9:30   10:30 a.m. prior to the services. Interment will
be at Redwood Memorial Estates.
