Ansell, Dale W.          
Dale W. Ansell 1916 ~ 2005 Dale W. Ansell died Dec. 12, 2005. Born May 20,
1916 to Dorothy and Harold Ansell of Salt Lake City, Utah. He served an LDS
Mission in Great Britain. Graduated from the University of Utah with honors
while also active in the ROTC. Upon first meeting of Larue Amundsen of Salt
Lake City, Dale knew she was his soul mate and she felt the same. They married
on December 29, 1941, while Dale was in the midst of preparing to serve his
country in the United States Army, assigned to the 9th Field Artillery of the
3rd Infantry Division. They were later sealed in the Salt Lake City Temple.
Dee Ansell was born to this wonderful marriage. Dale considered that he and
Larue were "Lovers Forever". Retired from the U.S. Army as Lt. Colonel.
Retired as an Engineer for Mtn. Fuel/Questar Gas. A voracious reader, he
memorized almost all he read, exhausting all subjects. He and Larue traveled
all over the U.S. by car and did their best to golf in almost every state.
Golfing, athletics, and sports came easy for him. Dale was a self taught
Astronomer. He catalogued the skies and created a revolving chart to show the
stars at certain times of night and year. It was magic watching Dale and Larue
dance. Music was always a part of Dale Ansell's life. If he wasn't humming
some tune, then the stereo was playing or Larue was playing the piano and he
was singing along. He had an extremely high I.Q., a brilliant man, however,
you felt as if what you were saying was the most important thing to him. He
loved his in-law's as if they were his own Sisters and /or Brothers. He loved
his Nieces and Nephews as if they were his own children. He was caring,
interesting, adventurous, gallant, loving, giving, patient and a Gentleman
through and through. He worked hard all his life. He could build and repair
almost anything. He lost his Parents, his beautiful Larue, his wonderful son
Dee, his Sister Coralee, and his brother Harold before him. It broke his
heart, yet he still continued to find beauty in all around him. Dale leaves
behind so many, his Grandsons Colter and Jesse Ansell of Cave Creek, Arizona,
Austin Ansell of West Jordan, Utah, Kim Ansell of Ansell Ranch in Old Pahreah
Area, Kane County, Utah. Dale W. Ansell will be sorely missed by so many
people in which it is impossible to list all here; as you read this you know
who you are. There will be a ceremony Saturday, December 17, at 11:00 am at
the Larkin Sunset Lawn Mortuary, 2350 East 1300 South, Salt Lake City. A
tribute will be given to Dale conducted by the U.S. Army sometime between
11:00 and 11:30 am. Dale and his Niece Julie Murphy were in the midst of
cataloguing and working on his memoirs of his life. Dale and his adopted
daughter Kim Ansell were in the midst of completing his World War II memoirs.
Copies will be made after completion for those who are interested. Here's to
you Dale W. Ansell, a great Dad, man, friend, father, husband, uncle, brother,
and neighbor who will be in our thoughts forever. Condolences may be sent to

in his home with his family around him. He was born on February 17, 1916 to
Zephyr and Michael Doyle in Ogden, Utah. Zane was a devoted husband and
father. He married Thelma, the love of his life, on July 29th 1937 in the
Logan Temple, after courting her since the 6th grade. They worked together and
enjoyed each other for their 52 years of marriage. Zane loved the outdoors;
fly fishing and gardening were his specialties. Carving bears in his later
life provided much enjoyment for himself and others, as well as many trips to
the emergency room. Zane visited Brighton in the early 40's on a ski trip and
he set out on a career that eventually led to the development of Brighton Ski
Resort. Zane was one of the pioneers of the Utah Ski Industry and guided the
development of Brighton Ski Resort from 1943 - 1987. He was inducted into the
Intermountain Ski Hall of fame in 2002 and later received the SJ Quinney Award
for contributions to skiing in the Intermountain West from the University of
Utah J. Willard Marriot Library. Needless to say, Zane loved the mountains,
his customers and his many employees. He always took pride in working in an
industry that provided fun for people, and often said that if not for the help
of his many friends he could not have made a go of it. He will be missed by
those friends, both young and old who had the privilege of knowing this tough
old mountain man. He is survived by two daughters CarolLynn (Don) Palmer and
Nanette (Laury) Bullock, sons Michael (Jane), Randy (Debbie), sisters Donna
McClain and Pat Burt, ten grandchildren, 17 great-grandchildren and two

throughout her rich and varied life, the world is now a lonelier place to be.
She will be missed forever, but comfort is found knowing she's back with the
love of her life, her late husband of 42 years, Darrell Louis Egbert. She is
also preceded in death by her parents and her brother, Donald F. Olson. The
family would like to express their most heartfelt appreciation for the care
and love shown to Melva by the doctors, nurses and staff at the University of
Utah Hospital's Solid Organ Transplant Program, 5 North, MICU and SICU. You
did everything you could and more; your efforts were not in vain. The family

school; it took them another 13 years to actually begin dating and they were
married on Christmas Day in 1942 while Gail was in the army. Barbara used her
education in the process of raising her two children, Trisha and Gregory. She
made homemaking her career while Gail was traveling with work. She became a
master seamstress, creating anything from fashion clothing to draperies and
upholstery. She remained passionate in her sewing until illness intervened.
She also embraced all things beautiful, from graphic arts to nature. Her love
of beauty found its ultimate expression in photography. She had an uncanny eye
for composition and her ability to focus on the fascinating in the commonplace
resulted in numerous awards for her photographic prints. She and Gail travel
extensively in pursuit of photo opportunities, from Europe to Africa, as well
as traversing most of the United States. After overcoming cancer in 1986, she
and Gail moved to St. George, finding an endless realm for photography.
Together they explored much of Southern Utah, while cultivating new friends
and interests. Both were active in the Institute for Continuing Learning at
Dixie State College and participated in various community activities. Barbara

Hermansen, Ora Clara Justensen          
Ora Clara Justensen Hermansen 5/ 8/21 ~ 12/12/05 Our dear mother, wife and
friend, Ora Clara Hermansen (Justensen), returned to our Heavenly Father on
December 12, 2005 in the same way that she lived her extraordinary life -
quietly. The daughter of James Arthur and Elenora Christina Justensen of
Moroni, Utah, Ora, or Odie as some called her, moved to Salt Lake City where
she met and later married her husband of 67 years, Grant Hermansen. They were
sealed in the Salt Lake Temple April 15, 1955 and are the loving parents of
eight children. Ora leaves behind a legacy of love, compassion and selfless
service. She was the center of her family both immediate and extended. Her
home was open to everyone, without judgment or reservation and no matter the
time of day you could be sure her kitchen was open too - you could come for a
visit anytime you wanted but, you couldn't leave till you had a bite to eat.
She loved evening breezes out of Mueller Park Canyon, thunderstorms in spring,
howling coyotes on the Arizona desert and visits from the grandkids. A member
of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, she served on the Relief
Society board, in primary, Cub Scouts and a variety of other positions. Her
greatest joy however, was her family - she saw to their every need and made
everyone feel special; she was a faithful wife and mother, who taught by
example with patience, kindness and love. We'll miss her at Sunday dinners,
birthday parties, showers, weddings, holidays and everyday in-between. Ora is
preceded in death by her daughter Maryanne, and sister Helen. She is survived
by her husband Grant; brother Larry and her children Judy (Elliott), Susan
(Eldon), Karen (Bill), Steve (Lisa), David (Audrey), John, (Lisa), Kris (Jeff)

Merrill, Rev. Jerald H.       
Rev. Jerald H. Merrill "Jerry" Rev. Jerald Hayden "Jerry" Merrill died at age
80 in Salt Lake City on December 10, 2005. The son of Glenn William Merrill of
Preston, Idaho and Edna Lee Hayden of Salt Lake City, he was born in Rigby,
Idaho on December 30, 1924. Glenn taught mathematics and social studies and
coached athletics in rural high schools in Idaho, Wyoming, and Utah. He
concluded this career in Moab to enter government service, mainly in Dayton,
Ohio. Edna pursued careers as a dress designer in Logan and, later, as legal
secretary in Salt Lake City. Both are deceased. Following three years of
service in the Air Force during the Second World War as navigator, Jerry
completed chemical engineering studies at the University of Utah in 1948. He
was employed by Shell Oil Company in the San Francisco bay area for three
years, resigning to attend St. Patrick's Seminary, Menlo Park, California.
After completing studies in 1958, he was ordained a priest in the Roman
Catholic diocese of Salt Lake City at the Cathedral of the Madeleine by the
Most Rev. Joseph Lennox Federal, Bishop. He served the Catholic people of Salt
Lake City for the next 23 years, teaching science at Judge Memorial Catholic
High School and providing pastoral care to the people of Guadalupe Mission,
Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, and the Cathedral of the Madeleine. During these
years, he developed friendships with students and parishioners that would last
all his life and be a great source of joy. Jerry was best known as an
organizer of projects. Three programs that he started in the '60s survive him:
Guadalupe Schools, now a pre-school through 3rd grade program for children
with language and learning deficits, and an evening tutoring program for
adults learning English as a second language; Utah Nonprofit Housing
Corporation, a sponsor and developer of affordable multi-family housing,
which, after 38 years, offers nearly 16,000 rental units to low income
families and elderly and disabled people; Catholic Community Credit Union,
continuing many years of credit service and counseling. One of the several
projects which has not continued is the Guadalupe Center and its popular La
Morena Cafe. This community center provided gathering space for Hispanic
social action and the cafe offered jobs for employees and funds for projects.
In 1982, Jerry resigned from his ministry in the Catholic Church. He never
stated publicly his reasons for this decision. Later that year he and Carole
Migden Carlisle were married by the Rt. Rev. Wesley Frensdorff, Episcopal
Bishop of Nevada. His marriage to Carole and the birth of their son Isaac
Marcos "Marc", born the next year, were to bring great happiness to Jerry's
life. After efforts to develop an insurance and securities sales business,
Jerry was invited by the Rt. Rev. Otis Charles, then Bishop of Utah, who had
received him into the Episcopal Church several years earlier, to consider
serving as a priest in the Episcopal Church. After time for decision and
preparation, Jerry was received as a priest in 1987 at the Cathedral Church of
Saint Mark by Bishop Charles. Beginning his ministry to homeless men and women
in Salt Lake City, Jerry and a small staff developed The Inn, a day center for
the homeless where food, clothing, emergency housing, and information on jobs
and housing were provided. These efforts, after a couple of years, grew into
the Lotus Project, an employment and job training program. A word about the
inner dynamic of this man: He came to realize something of God's immense love
for him, as for each human being. Like the mystical bride of "The Song of
Songs," Jerry lived the adventure of seeking God in moments of light, when he
seemed near, and in life's darkness, when he seemed to have gone away, until
that day when they would find each other forever, Jerry is survived by his
wife Carole and their son Marc. He is also survived by a younger brother, Dix
Glenn Merrill of Centerville and by Carole's elder son, Craig William Carlisle
of St. Augustine, FL. Jerry's brother Karl Rowland Merrill and his wife Mary
Sweeney Merrill both died in 1993 in Fort Worth, TX; Their five children are
living: Kathie Hood, M.D. of Garland, Texas; Terry d'Agustino of Columbus, Oh;
Carol Kirkpatrick of Fort Worth, TX; John Merrill of Euless, Texas; and James
Merrill of Westerville, Oh.-JHM In a memorial service, the Eucharist of the
Resurrection of Jesus Christ will be celebrated Friday, Dec. 16, 2005 at 12:00
Noon at the Cathedral Church of St. Mark, 231 East 100 South. Holy Rosary will

Richardson, Elizabeth Noelle       
Elizabeth Noelle Richardson 1988 ~ 2005 Elizabeth Noelle Richardson, left this
life during the same season she came, when we focus on the birth of our
Savior. She was born on November 26, 1988 in Kirkland, Washington. She passed
away peacefully at home on December 9, 2005, surrounded by her loving family.
Elizabeth was born missing most of the grey matter on her brain and with
complicated orthopedic problems and was what most people would consider
severely disabled. Yet she taught us so much! She taught us about love,
strength, resilience and most especially that people with disabilities are not
scary, but wonderful. Because of her influence, our family grew in amazing
ways. Elizabeth never needed baptism in this life and we know she is now
dancing and singing with the other angels in heaven. She loved the songs of
the LDS church, especially "Families Can Be Together Forever". She was keenly
sensitive to the Spirit and had a direct line to heaven. She was given a grim
prognosis at birth and was not expected to live more than a few days, but
gifted us with 17 wonderful years. She stayed with us through pain and
difficulty over the last several years and has changed us all forever. How we
will miss her! She is survived by her parents, Greg and Holly Richardson,
brothers Aaron, Michael, Buzaneh, Ashenafe, Joshua, Halofom, Roman, Kerry,
Tomas and Ammon and sisters Mira, Alina, Anna Long, Katie, Kristiana,
Bethlehem, Rebecca, Rachel and Tereza, special friend Charlotte Deveraux and
grandparents Randall and Evelyn Richardson (Smithville, Missouri) and Norman
and Sallianne Tree (LDS Geneva, Switzerland mission). She was preceded in
death by sisters Alexandra, Aimee, Jennifer, Maria and Tereza and by brothers
Maxim, Alexander, and Nathaniel. Our thanks go out to all of her teachers, bus
drivers and aides at Dan Peterson school for all the years of love and care
shown to Lizzie and to Dr. Vaughn Johnson, for his care and support. A viewing
will take place in the family's home on Friday, December 16, from 7 to 9 p.m.,

Turner, Thomas           
Thomas Turner "Dad" Thomas Turner, 75, beloved husband, father, and
grandfather, fell asleep on Tuesday, December 13, 2005 after a very brief
illness and is now peacefully awaiting the return of our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ. Born March 3, 1930 in Salt Lake City, Utah, Tom grew up in Helper,
Utah where his love for the outdoors allowed him to pursue his lifelong
passion for fishing. In 1948, he joined the Marine Corps and while in the last
years of his service to his country, he and his family moved to Anchorage,
Alaska in 1962. Upon retiring from the military, he remained in Alaska to
raise his family and went on to become a successful businessman. Though moving
from Alaska in 1985 to Salt Lake City, Utah, he often returned to the rivers
and streams he loved where he not only found enjoyment, but to a place where
he found a sense of peace and inner strength. He will be returning there this
summer. Tom will be remembered for his love of family and friends as well as
his sense of humor; he loved to make people laugh. His greatest source of
pride was his family. As a Master Mason, he was known as "Uncle Tom" and
thoroughly enjoyed the community service, projects and fellowship within the
Lodge. His lifelong acts of compassion and generosity, both recognized and
unrecognized, have not, and will not go un-rewarded. He will be missed.
Surviving family members include his beloved wife of 53 years, Mova Corrine;
sons Craig Thomas, Scott, Jeffrey Winston, and Thomas James; grandchildren
Kurt Thomas, Audrey Janeen, Holli Ann, Kelley Lynn and Katherine Melissa
Corrine; sister Barabara Ladakis; and special nephew and niece Carly and

September 29, 1957, at Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Salt Lake
City. She came to the United States in 1955 having survived the Nazi
occupation of Greece and serving as a nurse during World War II. Yiayia was

the Transfiguration in Ogden. She proudly sang in the choir, and volunteered
many countless hours for the church. She was a very devoted wife, mother and
Yiayia. Surviving are two sons and two daughters, Nickolas A. (Diane) Velis,

parents, husband, four brothers and one sister. When she was told the end was
near and asked if she was afraid, she confidently replied, "no", because she
knew and told us she was going to a better place and be with God. During this
very difficult time, she was more concerned about her kids and grandkids than
herself. A person's worth can be measured by their influence on others. Her
family is a reflection of the life she lived. Ma, we will miss you each and
