Beeley, Flora S.         
Flora S. Beeley Great Sense of Humor Flora S. Beeley died of natural causes on
Monday, August 15, 2005, in St Mark's Hospital, Salt Lake City. Her husband,
Stephen J. Beeley, preceded her in death in 1998. Flo was 82 years old and
lived in the Salt Lake area all her life. She is survived by her sister, Mrs.
Adine (Dee) Chipman; her son Micheal G. (and Karen) Beeley and her daughter
Patricia B. Ronneburg; her granddaughters Nicole (and Mark) Lengel and Monique
Beeley; and her great-granddaughters Lauren and Maegan Lengel. Flo graduated
from East High School and the University of Utah where she was better known as
"Flashy Flo from Kokomo." While raising her family, she completed her
schooling and went on to teach Grades 1-4 for 15 years in the Davis County
School District. She won numerous awards for her excellence in teaching
elementary school students and was a member of the honorary society, Delta
Kappa Gamma. Flo was quite the athlete: she taught swimming in the summer
between school sessions and enjoyed tennis, golf, boating, water skiing, and
bowling with her good friends in the Goof Balls Bowling League. She was an
avid photographer and scrap booker; loved to play cards; sang with the Stewart
Singers; loved her many cats and dogs; and published a joke book. Flo was an
accomplished painter and prolific needle crafter. Her ribbon winning crocheted
afghans will warm us now that she is gone. Her favorite activity was spending
time with her many friends-old and new-and her family. All of us will miss her
sunny smile and her outrageous sense of humor, but we will know that in
passing, she believed that she would regain the many things that she lost
these last few years: her sight, her memory, her vigor. Friends may visit the
family at 10:30AM Friday, August 19, at Larkin Mortuary, 260 East South
Temple, Salt Lake City. In keeping with Flo's wishes, a brief funeral service
will be held at 11 AM at Larkin. Interment will follow immediately at Wasatch

establishing and running Hoagland and Company. He wished to thank his talented
colleagues and fellow crafts-men for their hard work and devotion. Tim was the
vice-chairman of the Salt Lake City Redevelopment Advisory Committee and
recipient of numerous awards for historic preservation. Tim was a man of
extraordinary talents, aesthetics, and generosity. Completely devoted to his
wife of 19 years, Patty; and their two sons, Adam and Max, his greatest joy
came in spending time with them. His wry and unexpected sense of humor, his
appreciation and understanding of the natural world, his loyalty to family,
friends and community, his keen intelligence, and his uncompromising artistry
in all he endeavored, deeply endeared him to all who were fortunate enough to
know him. As his 15 year-old son, Max, observed, "He was a man who liked to do
things." Tim was a beloved and gracious gentleman to the end. He leaves a
trail of light in his passing. The family would like to thank Dr. Michael
Collins who became a trusted friend on Tim's final journey, Dr. Mark Paradise,

At an early age, Lila demonstrated remarkable poetic talents. She began

she was writing poems for her family. Lila wrote and published over 300 poems
and was the recipient of many regional and national awards. Lila graduated

her life, Rulon Ballif Squires, while working at Thatcher Brothers Bank in
Logan. They were married in the Salt Lake City LDS Temple on September 2,
1931. They made their home in Logan and became the parents of four children.
Rulon's position with First Security Bank required a move to Salt Lake City
and they purchased a home in the East Millcreek area. Their beautiful yard and
flowers were the envy of neighbors and friends. Lila's poetic talents
flourished while in the East Millcreek Fourth Ward. She wrote roadshows and
plays as well as birthday poems for the Relief Society sisters. Lila took
organ lessons from her son Norman and became a talented organist. She shared
her musical talents by playing for the Primary and Relief Society until the
age of 89. Lila held many positions in the LDS Church, and took great pleasure
in serving as an organist at the Salt Lake LDS Temple. In 1982 Lila's beloved
husband Rulon passed away. She continued to reside in East Millcreek until
1999 when she moved to the Legacy Retirement Residence and later to Legacy
House. While at Legacy, Lila continued sharing her poetic talents and made
many friends. Lila is survived by her children: Richard (JoAnn) of Dallas TX;
Norman (Dorene) currently serving the LDS Church in Jerusalem; Linda Eldredge
(Ken) of Lacey WA; and Brent (Melanie) of Sandy. She is also survived by 20
grandchildren and 49 great-grandchildren. Lila was very proud of the many
accomplishments of her children and grandchildren. She was preceded in death

Watts, Ivan J.           
Ivan J Watts 1927 ~ 2005 "Saying goodbye is hard to do. Be loving, be kind, be
true. Put your arms around each other. Stay together. Love your mother and
take care of each other." Ivan J Watts, a man we love and adore, passed
peacefully from this life into his Savior's arms, in the early morning hours
of August 16, 2005. Ivan was born March 4, 1927 in Kanosh, Utah, the oldest
son of Wilford William Watts and Thrella Christensen Watts. Ivan married Olive
Hansen for time and all eternity in the Manti temple on January 2, 1952. Ivan
loved the gospel of Jesus Christ and his country. He served both honorably as
a missionary in the North Central States and as a soldier in Korea. Ivan was
educated in the traditional sense, earning degrees from the University of
Utah, Brigham Young University, and a Master's Degree from Golden State
University; although, the education he treasured most came from the mountains,
the desert, from everything his Heavenly Father created. Ivan had a gift for
understanding and caring for animals. Throughout his lifetime, he shared this
love with everyone, particularly his children and grandchildren. With Ivan,
trips through the outdoors - although not always safe - were always a "Watts
Adventure!" Ivan devoted his life to his family and taught them all of the
things that he loved: ranching, camping, horseback riding, fishing, scouting,
gardening, teaching, and above all, a love for his Savior, Jesus Christ. Ivan
loved life and the opportunities it afforded him. He was an accomplished
rancher and educator, and worked for the BLM and the United States Air Force.
After retiring, Ivan worked as a supervisor at the Delta Center. First and
foremost, however, Ivan was the last of the old-time cowboys. Ivan is survived
by his devoted companion, Olive; four children: James, Thrella (Alex), Bryan,
Maurice (Jan). Six grandchildren: Kimberly, Jarica, Alexis, Luke, Landen,
Raquel, and one great-grandchild, Case; brothers and sisters: Gloria, Marilyn,
Wanda, ReVon, Raymon, and Douglas. Funeral services will be held Friday,
August 19, 2005 at 12:00 p.m. at the Little Cottonwood Sixth Ward (Brownstone
Chapel), 6410 South 725 East. Friends and family are invited to call Thursday,
August 18 from 6:00-8:00 p.m., Jenkins-Soffe Mortuary, 4760 South State
Street, and Friday, August 19 from 11:00-11:45 a.m. at the church. "I will end
by bearing my testimony. I know the Church is true and that families can be
together forever. I wouldn't have changed one moment of the past. It has been
so beautiful and full of love."
