Baker/Casper, Landen Gaffney
Landen Gaffney Baker/Casper "Lando Commando" Momma's sunshine, Landen, was
born February 18, 1994 at Cottonwood Hospital. His short life ended April 15,
2005. Landen was my little jokester; he always had a joke to make someone who
was sad happy. His purpose in life was to have fun whether it was playing
Playstation, his Gameboy, or showing his mom his latest "skate" tricks. He
always liked doing things with the people he loved. He had many friends who
were always excited and anxious to be with Landen. His very best friend would
have to be his brother, Cody. Cody and Landen's relationship was very special,
always helping each other along the way. Cody knows that Landen is with his
Heavenly Father who loves him in Heaven and Cody talks to him often. Landen
was a member of the LDS Church and had just become a scout which he enjoyed
very much. Landen had a very special artistic ability. He loved to draw things
that made him happy and also would share his work with everyone. Some of his
favorite things to do was make people laugh, wrestle with his brothers, Kaden
and Cody, and his stepdad, Troy. They were always having fun together,
especially with the outside activities they enjoyed. Landen loved to camp and
hike and loved riding our four wheeler that Troy and him went together to pick
out. Landen was his mom's pride and joy and my little buddy. He touched
everyone he knew and always lit up the room. Landen -- you are my sunshine and
my only sunshine, you make me happy when skies are grey. You'll never know
dear, how much I love you, please don't take my sunshine away. Momma loves you
and my sunshine will never go away. Landen is survived by his mom, Caroline
Casper; brother, Cody; brother, Kaden Wright; stepdad, Troy Wright;
grandparents, Art and Luana Casper, Jack and Vicky Spainhower, David and
Melinda Baker; father, Brendan Baker; great-grandmas, Ada Belliston, Joyce
Gaffney; also many, many uncles, aunts, and cousins all who love Landen
dearly. Preceded in death by his great-grandparents, Arthur and Bernice
Casper; great-grandfathers, Harold Belliston and Robert Gaffney; great-aunt,

great-grandmother, Alice Meredith, 92, passed away peacefully on April 15,
2005. She was born on December 3, 1912 in Beaver, Utah to Joseph Heber
Beaumont and Georgina Boyter. As a 25-year-old waitress, she married her boss,
Arthur John Childs Meredith on May 9, 1938 in Beaver. The marriage was later
solemnized in the Salt Lake LDS Temple on August 23, 1961. Alice's life was a
synonym of selfless service. She was never afraid of hard work and was often
heard asking, "What can I do for you?" Working on a farm, then countless hours
at the Meredith Caf  in Beaver (where she was famous for her pies) prepared
her for her responsibilities later in their Meredith Motel: washing and
hanging clothes, cleaning rooms, and waiting on guests. She did all this in
addition to the responsibilities that came with being a wife and mother. Alice
was a gracious hostess, a wonderful cook, and a beautiful seamstress. She
spent countless hours sewing temple clothing and once won a ribbon for sewing
an exquisite beaded wedding dress for her granddaughter. Heavenly Father gave
her many gifts: she loved to paint and play the piano and organ and often
entertained her children and grandchildren with her music. She enjoyed
learning and increasing her knowledge, continuing to sign up for classes even
in her late 80's. It's no wonder that later in her life, she just couldn't sit
still! As an active member of the LDS Church, she worked for several years
(until her health would no longer allow) in three different temples: Provo,
Mt. Timpanogas, and Jordan River. In her lifespan she saw a lot of changes in
the world. She went from horse and buggy to cars and airplanes. She taught her
family to be selfless in serving others, to be patient in difficult
circumstances, and to be charitable to everyone. She is survived by seven
children, three born to both she and Art: Ralph Joseph (Beata) Meredith of
Murray, Utah; Alice G. ("Chic") McGowan of South Jordan, Utah; and Lucille
(Dale) Guest of Nampa, Idaho; and four whom she lovingly raised from her
husband's previous marriage: Alfred Junior "Jack" (Belva) Meredith of Orem,
Utah; Gladys Meredith of Las Vegas, Nevada; Arthur C. (Wilma) Meredith of
Orem, Utah; Eileen Wade of La Habra, California. These children blessed her
with 50 grandchildren, 92 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by
her husband and two brothers, Leonard and William. The family expresses
sincere thanks to the caring and devoted personnel at the Woodland Park Care
Center and Odyssey Health Care for their dedication and kindness during their
mother's final days. We will miss Alice dearly and take comfort in knowing she
is truly happy and at peace. We love you, Mom. Funeral services will be held
Thursday, April 21, 2005 at 11:00 a.m. at the Parkway 3rd Ward, 10200 S. 3200

Smith, Mona Andrus
Mona Andrus Smith 1938 ~ 2005 Mona Andrus Smith, 66, of Provo, died after a
long and courageous struggle with cancer on Tax Day, April 15, 2005. She was
born September 1, 1938 in Idaho Falls to Todd Andrus and Hortense Hansen
Andrus. She was married in the Idaho Falls Temple on June 1, 1962 to Kendall
Smith. Kendall passed away on November 12, 1993. Together she and Kendall did
a spectacular job of raising their three children, Paul and (Melanie) Smith,
Wendy and (David) Frandsen, Mike and (Carolina) Smith, and 10 wonderful
grandchildren, all of whom will miss her deeply. She is also survived by her
sister and two brothers. Mona grew up on a farm in Idaho with dreams of
becoming a musician. She worked her way through college by teaching music
lessons and working on the family dry farm in the summers. She graduated from
college in 1960, receiving both her bachelors and masters degrees from Brigham
Young University. She began teaching piano there in 1961and retired in 2004.
Mona was a dedicated performer and played for many groups including the BYU
philharmonic symphony orchestra. She was a long time member of the Utah Music
Teacher's Association, and loved to teach music. She felt that it could
literally change lives. Over the years she taught over 250,000 music lessons.
Although she was a strict teacher, her former students have sent her hundreds
of letters of appreciation. After her retirement she missed her students and
the chance teaching gave her to change lives and help people. She respected
her colleagues at BYU and loved them like a second family. Mona loved her
grandchildren as much as her own kids. She always remembered their birthdays
and special occasions and managed to make each one of them feel important. She
was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints all
of her life. She was a ward organist for more than 50 years, and served in
many other callings including Young Women's president, Relief Society
president, and gospel doctrine teacher. Mona lived in the same home in Provo
for 38 years and will be missed by her many friends and neighbors. Mona had a
great sense of humor and celebrated life whenever she had the chance. She
often expressed this by saying that you had to stop and buy yourself a white
hyacinth every so often. She always kept homemade brownies in her kitchen and
often shared them with her co-workers. She enjoyed BYU sports and followed the
teams avidly. She loved to shop, and in fact literally shopped 'til she
dropped. We would like to offer a special thanks to all of the doctors, nurses
and health care providers involved in the care of our mother over the last two
years. Funeral services will be held on Thursday, April 21, 2005 at 12:00 noon
