Mourning her are her three children - Madeleine Booth Behle of Tiburon, California (Dr. Hugh Cox), Linda B. Schweikardt, and Edson E. Booth (Johnnye).

Booth, preceded her in death in 1966, and we take great comfort in believing that mother and daddy are finally together again, "cutting up" and dancing in heaven. Christine was born on November 11, 1916 in Socorro, New Mexico to Richard Maxmillian and Eloisa Stackpole Zimmerly. One of her six brothers brought home a classmate at the New Mexico School of Mines (Edson) for dinner, and it was love at first sight! Christine and Edson married in 1938 and moved to Salt Lake to begin daddy's engineering profession at Kennecott Copper. Mother's lifelong career as devoted wife and mother flourished with the arrival of her three "kidlins" over nine years. Christine began her other career, as a bookkeeper (Dixon Paper Co. and Travel Center) when Edson was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Mother was "in her glory" lullabying babies, serving up homilies of common sense and practical economy with Sunday dinners and New Mexican family suppers, lemon meringue and devil's food not to be missed. Her life was enriched with bosom buddies and canasta club, and family visits returning to New Mexico. Her brunette beauty and stylish mode gave a glamorous aura all through her life. A family in the parish of Our Lady of Lourdes, she was devoted in her Novenas and served in Altar Society and saw to it that her children received their sacraments there. The family is very grateful to the kind and loving staff at Garden Terrace where mother lived for almost six years. Joyce, Norma, Kristi, Marta, Mimi, Omar, Tyrone, Roger, Natalie, Deb and Michelle are just a few of the many who cared for her so well. We thank you sincerely. We would welcome your donation to the Alzheimer's Association in Christine's name instead of flowers.

Gibbs, 63, died suddenly but peacefully at home on January 12, 2005, under a beautiful winter's night sky. Charlie was born August 10, 1941 in Laramie, WY, the only child of Charles A. and Dorothy Gibbs. He grew up in the Cowboy State and his early years saw him active in 4-H and scouting where he attained the rank of Eagle. A very proud member of Sheridan High School's class of '59, he was active in athletics, theatre and journalism. It was there that he met Frankie Gillen, though their romance would wait to blossom until they both attended and graduated from Sheridan College, where he was student body president from 1960-61. After honorably serving a Mormon mission to southern California and Arizona, Charlie would later graduate from BYU in 1965 as the honor student in Communications. On August 23, 1963 he married Frankie and 11 months later they became a family of three with the birth of their son, Chad. In 1971, the family added another member when Scott Breen came to live with them, who Charlie loved as another son. An avid scuba diver, Charlie led an active and adventurous life that included whitewater rafting throughout the West, skydiving and motorcycling. When it came to driving, he was forever a truck man, with Willie Nelson usually playing on the stereo. Children were drawn to his puckish nature and he was always the willing jester of their court. Truth be known, Dad was a bit of a nudist (just around the house, mind you), but when he did dress for the outside world he thought yellow, purple or orange socks were the height of fashion. He refused to wear white dress shirts and saw no problem with sporting a propeller beanie to formal dinners. He was a ready volunteer to anyone needing assistance. He was a friend to stalled motorists. He loved to help others with their remodeling projects and was a handy electrician. Charlie was never afraid to poke a finger in the eye of the powerful. Dad's talent for refusing to blindly bow to authority was maddening, yet inspiring. He taught those around him to ask questions, to read between the lines, be ever observant, to take risk, but never take the little things for granted. Governors, senators, even a prophet knew that Charlie would tell them what they needed to know, not what they wanted to hear. He excelled in his career and many sought his advice when it came to marketing new ideas. For several years he hosted "Seven Scene," a weekly program on KUED where he interviewed everyone from Alex Haley and Dr. Joyce Brothers to Benji the Dog. During his tenure as a spokesman for the Mormon Church, he was instrumental in bringing them positive national media recognition and publicity. Journalists from around the country trusted and respected him. He met with three U.S. Presidents and was active in both Republican and Democratic campaigns. Candidates mattered more than parties. Dad's spirituality went through a grand evolution. During the last 14 years he helped others work through their addictions, and was thankful for all who helped him take those 12 steps. He said if you wanted to better understand a higher power, skip church and find someone to help. He ended every nightly prayer with, "Please help me do the next right thing, and lead me to that person in need." We miss C.R. and he is gone too soon, but we were blessed to have him as part of our small family. He is survived by his mom, Dorothy (Sheridan, WY); wife, Frankie; son, Chad (Quebec, Canada); Scott Breen and his sons Jake, Adam and Chris (Salt Lake City). He is also survived by half sister Shirley Schmidt (Florida), and many cousins. Hattie will miss her best friend and afternoon storyteller. He is preceded in death by his father, Charch, and his favorite adopted yellow lab, Max. A celebration of his life will be held Monday, January 17 at 11 a.m. at Grand America in Ballroom A (555 S. Main St. Salt Lake City, UT). Please avoid wearing white dress shirts, though brightly colored socks are encouraged. A memorial service will also be held in Sheridan, Wyoming at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family asks donations be made to The Haven, Intermountain Therapy Animals, or to the Sheridan College Foundation, P.O. Box 6328, Sheridan WY, 82801.

After her children were raised, Mildred worked as a secretary in the Granite School District at Evergreen Junior High School. Mother amazed many by her talents. She knit for friends and family for over 60 years. She also did a generous amount of cross-stitch, crochet, needlepoint, quilting, ceramics, and made her own chocolates. To everyone's benefit, she lovingly gave most of what she made away and we treasure her gifts, which celebrate her life. Because her children and grandchildren were under he tutelage, her many talents will be carried on. Her favorite time of the year was Christmas. For years, she created theme Christmas trees, trimmed in hand-made ornaments. Her trademark was her exquisite Father Christmas'. Mildred loved company and was most happy when friends and family were at her side. And this is how her life ended; doing what she loved the very most, with her family in joyful reminiscing. Mildred is survived by her four children: Linda (Wayne) Peck, Patty (Stanford) Reid, Chuck (Lavin) Quinn and Jane (Craig) Larson; 18 grandchildren, 45 great grandchildren and one great-great grandchild. She also leaves the many friends she cherished. Please join us in a celebration of life Monday, Jan. 17, 2005 at 12 noon at Larkin Sunset Gardens, 1950 East 10600 South, Sandy.

Pamela was born June 18, 1934 in Tamaroa, Illinois the daughter of James and Mabel Martin. Shortly after her birth the family moved to DuQuoin, Illinois. She attended school in DuQuoin, and graduated with honors in 1952 from DuQuoin High School. Following her schooling in DuQuoin, Pamela attended Stevens College in Columbia, Missouri graduating with an Associate Degree in 1954. In 1955 Pamela entered the University of Utah. It was there that she met her future husband, David. They were married June 24, 1955, and Pam and Dave then moved to Palo Alto, California where Dave attended law school. During the law school years, Pam worked as a clerk at Palo Alto Hospital. Without her salary from the hospital and the G.I. Bill, the couple would never have made it through law school. On June 17, 1958 Dave graduated from law school, and on that same date the couple's first child, Ann, was born. She was followed by a daughter, Kay, in 1960, and a son, James, in 1964. During this time Pam was completely committed to her family. She was a wonderful wife and mother. After her children had all reached their teens, Pam looked around for something to occupy her time. She had long been a voracious reader and even when the children were younger she had attained a reputation as a book reviewer. She accepted a job as an assistant librarian at Highland High School. She worked there part-time for approximately eight years, and then transferred to Rowland Hall. She thoroughly enjoyed both of these jobs and particularly liked the involvement with the students and her co-workers. Pam was a very private person and liked nothing better than curling up along with a good book. Her enjoyment of reading was only surpassed by her interest in her five grandchildren. These grandchildren range in age from 28 to two years, and Pam loved and had a keen interest in all of them. Pamela is preceded in death by her mother and father, Mabel and James Martin.

Workman, Merlin Horne Merlin Horne Workman 30 December 1923 "Cruising Again" On January 13th, 2005 our delightful father, surrounded by his children and grandchildren, was finally taken from this mortal existence to reunite once again with his eternal companion of 55 years, Doris Rae Koger Workman, after waiting somewhat patiently for almost two years in the capable and caring hands of Heritage Care in American Fork. The reunion with his parents, Meltiar Hatch and Edna Horne Workman; along with his brother, Grant; and his sister, Ruth; and a granddaughter, Melissa, must have been sweet indeed. His surviving younger brother, Dale; and sisters, Beth, Gloria, and Eilene, along with their spouses, have been so supportive and were always loved deeply. Honored to be their children are Mark (Connie), Paul (Bonnie), Rae Ann (Glen) and Myron (Christy). Sixteen grandchildren and nine great grandchildren and numerous nieces and nephews added so much joy to their lives. Merlin was always proud to share with others the accomplishments of his children and their families. Merlin was born and raised in Delta, Utah. A Delta High grad, he joined the U.S. Army Air Corp and spent the year of 1944 in the Southwestern Pacific as a bombardier on B-24 Liberators with the Jolly Rogers ("The Best Damn Heavy Bomber Unit in the World"), as part of the 5th Air Force in the 319th Squadron where they never for a minute forgot Pearl Harbor. A highlight of his life was a reunion after 52 years with the bomber crew where the nine surviving crew members celebrated their respect and admiration for each other. Throughout his life, he enjoyed visiting Air Force museums and airports. Few older men escaped Merlin's firm grasp and broad smile before being asked about their military service. Upon his discharge, Merlin fulfilled an LDS Church mission to South Africa with a three-month stopover in Houston, Texas, where he met Doris Rae. The married years were spent in Texas, Colorado and finally back to Utah. Merlin loved LDS Church history and his pioneer ancestry. His visit to Nauvoo and Iowa in the spring of 2000 with Glen and the Workman Boys enabled him to share that love of the faith and sacrifice of the Workman, Hatch, Turner, Hales, Ellis, Horne, Morrison, and Hansen pioneer families. Family and friends remember sharing numerous trips to the National Parks where they loved sitting around a campfire visiting and sleeping in the cold mountain air. One of Merlin's few complaints of 'old age' was losing the freedom to grab Doris Rae and the car keys and go cruising. Quite simply, Merlin drove as they picnic'd thru life. A viewing will be held from 6-8 p.m. Sunday, January 16, 2005 at Anderson Mortuary, 49 E. 100 North, American Fork. Funeral services will be 11 a.m. Monday, January 17th at the Highland 7th Ward 5212 W.
