buddies hiking up a mountain or camping next to a great fly fishing stream.
How he will be missed by his parents and his two sisters who idolized him,
Kristina Court Holley (Brad), of LaFayette, IN and Lisa Court Robinson
(Gregory) of West Lake Village, CA. He will leave a huge void in the life of
his precious niece and nephew, Kambria and Garrik Robinson to whom he was the
greatest hero in the universe. He leaves behind the love of his life, Andrea

his mom and dad, are traits that merely touch the surface of who he really is.

Elkins, Rita Paola Palmieri
Rita Elkins 1950 ~ 2005 Rita Paola Palmieri Elkins, 54 passed away peacefully
Friday, February 4, 2005. Rita was born in Florence, Italy March 16, 1950 to
Josephine Frances Lupo and Dr. Antonio Fulvio Palmieri. She personified the
characteristics of the city in which she was born - beauty, art, grace, and
inspiration. In 1953 Rita immigrated to the United States with her father,
mother, and young sister on the Italian ocean liner, The Conte Biancamano. She
resided in Arlington and Richmond, Virginia, throughout her childhood where
she developed her talents in painting and writing, and her love for the arts.
At the age of 18 Rita became a true pioneer for her Italian Catholic family
when she moved west to attend Brigham Young University. It was there that she
was baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Upon
returning to Virginia she paved the way for her mother and sister to also be
baptized by inviting the missionaries to their home. One of these young
elders, Robert Scott Elkins, was to become Rita's future husband. Rita and
Scott were sealed December 17, 1971 in the Salt Lake Temple. They made their
home in Orem, Utah where they became the parents of two beautiful daughters,
Tanya Michelle, and Taryn Melissa. When her children became older, Rita
returned to Brigham Young University to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree in
Design and later a Master's degree in Art History. Rita went on to teach in
the Art History Department and served as president of the Art History
Association at BYU. She soon became a favorite professor among students.
Oftentimes, students took Rita's class just to fill a requirement, but were so
inspired by her passion for the subject that they later went on to major in
Art History. Her quick wit, intellect, and sense of humor brought the subject
matter to life for all who attended her class. Throughout her life, Rita held
many callings within the church. Whether it be serving as Relief Society
president, gospel teacher, or Young Women advisor, Rita brought to all of her
church callings a love and dedication that truly made a difference in the
lives of those she served. She had an incredible gift for teaching gospel
principles because of her ability to relate to everyone. Rita had a particular
interest for reading and reporting on health-related subjects. She became a
well-known author in the natural health field, publishing dozens of titles,
one of which received the honor of Foreword Magazine's Book of the Year. Rita
had a rare strength about her that radiated to everyone who knew her. She was
known for Italian cooking, Christmas mornings, innovative Halloween costumes,
extraordinary camp cooking, a passion for politics and patriotism, treasure
hunts at thrift stores, gardening, spoiling grandkids, and impeccable taste
and style. Most of all, Rita's greatest love was spending time with her
family, especially her two granddaughters, Taylor Michelle and McKenna
Josephine Gardner. Rita will be missed by her husband, Scott; daughters, Tanya
(Jon) Keller, Taryn (Brian) Gardner; granddaughters, McKenna and Taylor;
sister, Bianca (David) Lisonbee; mother-in-law, Gladys Elkins. She was
preceded in death by her mother and father, Josephine and Antonio Palmieri;
and her father-in-law, Col. Robert Elkins. Ti volgliamo bene, Rita. Sempre
famiglia! Funeral services will be held Tuesday February 8, 2005, at 11 a.m.
in the Orem East Stake Center, 810 East 600 North, Orem. Family and friends
may call Tuesday at the stake center from 9:30-10:45 a.m. Interment will be in
the Orem Cemetery.

Griffiths, Carolyn Clements
Carolyn Clements Griffiths "Kelly" Our loving wife, mother, grandmother, and
friend, Carolyn Clements Griffiths, passed away peacefully at her home
February 4, 2005 at the age of 67. Kelly was born a fighter, and left this
world after a 40 year long battle with multiple sclerosis. Kelly was born June
20, 1937 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Charlie L. and Marjorie B. Clements. She
married Larry D. Griffiths August 8, 1969; later solemnized in the Salt Lake

daughter, Debbie Gines (VerNaun), Layton; brother, Roland Clements (Karen);
and her seven grandchildren, Brandon, Addison, Lauren, Zack, Justin, Landon
and Nicole. She was preceded in death by her parents; and brother, David
Richard. Kelly lived her life her way; she loved the Lord and adored her
family. She was an active member of the LDS church and served in many
callings. Her favorite was her last calling, to call all the sisters in the
ward on their birthday; the sisters loved it and her too. One of Kelly's great
loves was music. She sang with the Salt Lake Symphonets, and with Larry in the
Salt Lake Symphonic choir. Kelly had an uncanny ability to turn every one she
met into a new friend. You couldn't go anywhere with Kelly without meeting
someone she knew. She had so many friends because she knew how to be a friend;
Kelly always put others before herself, her sincere thoughtfulness and ability
to care for others made her loved by all those that knew her. Funeral services
will be held Wed-nesday, February 9, 2005, at 12 noon, in the Taylorsville
North Stake Center, 1250 West 4375 South (Ath-erton Drive). Viewings for

Oldroyd, Douglas Clark
Douglas Clark Oldroyd 1959 ~ 2005 Douglas Clark Oldroyd returned home to his
Heavenly Father February 5, 2005 following a heroic battle with cancer. He
left this life in the loving arms of his eternal companion, Julie. Doug was
born January 16, 1959 at the Utah Valley Hospital in Provo, Utah, and grew up
in Springville. Early on, he developed both a sweet, loving spirit and a
mischievous sense of humor and wit, which he carried with him throughout his
life. Doug had a strong testimony of the gospel, which he continued to share
with his family and many friends shortly before his passing. His life was
defined by his devotion to his church. He served a mission in Columbus, Ohio.
Throughout his life, he held many callings in the church and performed each
faithfully. Doug graduated from Springville High, where he was an avid
athlete. He was an all-star baseball player, basketball player, and golf team
member. Through golf he met many of his closest friends. Partly through the
sport, he developed and maintained a very close relationship with his father.
He was also able to share his love of the sport with his sons and daughter,
which provided them with many sweet and memorable experiences. After his
mission, he began schooling at Southern Utah University, Utah Valley State
College, and Brigham Young University. While working in Provo, Utah as a plant
manager for Nubrite, he met his sweetheart, Julie Wardell at JB's restaurant
in 1983. The two were married for time and all eternity September 28, 1984 in
the Salt Lake Temple. Doug's life was marked by his devotion and dedication to
his family. He was a wonderful, involved and dedicated father who sacrificed
and worked hard to provide for his wife and children. He loved each deeply and
had a special relationship with each one. Doug will be remembered for having a
kind and gentle character, and a big heart. He loved those whom he came into
contact with, and this in turn made others love him. He was selfless, often
during his battle with cancer he would inquire what he could do to serve those
whom had come to serve him. His fighting spirit will also be remembered. He
won the Friday only golf tournament of the Art City Amateur during his
chemotherapy treatments, cheered on by many of his closest and loving friends.
He also worked tirelessly, and with great pain following his chemotherapy to
continue to support his family. At such a time, there are few words which can
express so wonderful a life and so excellent a man as Douglas Oldroyd, and
many are left with an appropriate hole in their hearts. To know Doug is to
love Doug. Truly, he can proclaim, "I have fought the good fight, I have
finished the race, I have kept the faith." Doug is survived by his wife, Julie
Wardell Oldroyd; sons, Alexander Clark, Stuart Dean, Nathan Wayne; and his
angel daughter straight from heaven, Lauren Dawn; father, Berdean E. "Dean";
brother, Donald Dean (Kiku) West Jordan, UT; and sisters, Patricia Hansen,
Tucson AZ, Maureen Chamberlain (Greg), Hurricane, UT, Wendy Lamoreaux (Terry),
West Jordan, UT, Marie, American Fork, UT, Lisa Vance (Tevis), Chubbuck, ID;
and many in-laws whom he loved as his own. He was preceded in death by his
beloved mother, Elsa. Funeral services will be held Tuesday, February 8, 2005,
11 a.m. at the Hobble Creek Stake Center, 450 South Canyon Drive in
Springville. Friends and family will be received at a special gathering Monday
evening, February 7, from 6-8 p.m. at the same location. Interment will be at
the Springville Evergreen Cemetery. The family wishes to express sincere
thanks to the many doctors and nurses who helped care for Doug, as well as the
many family, friends and ward members who have supported and loved us. Doug
continued to endear himself to others to the very end with his positive
attitude, sense of humor and kindness. We'll love you for always, we'll like
you forever, from now till forever, my sweetie, our father, son, brother, and
friend you'll be. Condolences may be sent to the family at

Paulsen II, Lars Finn
Lars Finn Paulsen II "Heart-fully Ours" Lars Finn Paulsen II, was born
February 3, 2005 and lived miraculously for a little over an hour. His
physical heart was a perfect symbol of his tremendous love as he literally
wore it on the outside of his chest for the world to behold. At the inspired
vision of his mother, we as a family earnestly sought and came to know
"Little" Lars in the womb, over the last eight months. From his dad's journal
let us tell you something about who he is: "He is fun, outgoing and
optimistic. He has a great relationship with his mom and loves to tease her
affectionately. I see him giving her big bear hugs and razzing her. He loves
adventure and at times gets himself into trouble by acting without thinking.
He has no fear. He skis, bikes and plays with daring abandon. He has a strong
and pure testimony of the gospel. I see him sharing the gospel with great
power and humility. I see him compassionately crying and empathizing with
people and using his good and witty humor to draw people in. He has a medium
build and is neither short nor tall. His smile is contagious and his blue eyes
easily moisten in tender moments. He has tremendous tenacity and courage with
a will that drives him to succeed and not give up even when faced with
incredible challenges. He is passionate. He does love BMW M3's like me. He is
a dreamer and creative and yet this is balanced with his simple insights and
wisdom of all that is around him." He is intimately known by us and we
celebrate him as a son, brother, grandson, and friend. We, his parents, ache
to hold him and look forward to filling our empty arms with his warm embrace.
He is survived by his parents, Lars and Lori Paulsen; his brother, James; his
sisters, Olivia and Ana; and his many loving extended family members. We would
like to thank all of those whose prayers, faith and love helped bring about
the miracle of his birth! We'd also like to thank the U of U medical staff for
their tender care and compassion. A service will be held at 12 noon Wednesday,
February 8, 2005 at the Wasatch Lawn Mortuary Chapel, 3401 S. Highland Drive.
Friends and family may call one hour prior to service.

In Remembrance Roger C. Pratt 2/7/53 ~ 4/16/04 Today is the first Anniversary
of your birthday since you passed away almost one year ago Roger and we love
and miss you more each day. Even watching "Jazz" basketball games on TV isn't
nearly as much fun without you and Dad. Looking forward to a joyous reunion

Sclafani, Karen
In Memoriam Karen Sclafani 10/28/66 ~ 2/7/04 Our beloved Karen had a dream:
giving birth to her baby at home under the care of a lay midwife. When Karen
developed pre-eclampsia, her husband took her to the nearby hospi tal in
Bozeman, Montana, where she gave birth to a healthy baby girl. Karen later
died of complications of pre-eclampsia and placenta accreta. Karen is greatly
missed by her Salt Lake family, Lynn Nicholas and Wallace Graham, and
particularly by her husband Brian Maffly, a former Tribune reporter. Karen
blessed us with a beautiful baby girl, Aryana Karen Maffly, in whom her spirit
lives on...For further information and pictures, see Karen's website at
