she spent many weeks traveling to many parts of the world. She found great
fulfillment in her travels but found her greatest joy in her testimony of
Jesus Christ. Even during the great discomfort and lengthy treatments for her
illness, Jennifer was an example of the utmost personal courage, grace and
example to others. Heeding the Savior's charge to be of good cheer, she had a
ready smile and voice of confidence that were a constant source of strength of
her family and friends. She viewed her nieces and nephews as her own, often

seeing them enjoy whatever she was able to share. Jennifer is survived by her

served often and attended weekly. They were spiritual anchors for their family
and friends and found ways to serve in every stage of life. Although her
eyesight began to fail 30 years ago, she never complained nor stopped making
weekly loaves of heavenly bread. Ann was a faithful member of The Church of
Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and serving in various callings including
Stake Relief Society President in Grace, Stake YWMIA President in Montpelier,
Idaho, and a temple worker in Logan. She unwaveringly supported her husband in

Pioneers. Ann laughed easily and often through good and hard times and was the
epitome of a kind soul. She exemplified to her posterity the importance of
faith, honesty and a scoop of ice cream after dinner. She is survived by her
husband Parley, daughter Karen (Gary), and son Spence (Sandy), all of Sandy,
Utah. She will be greatly missed by her 10 grandchildren and 16
great-grand-children. She was preceded in death by a granddaughter, a
