Allen, Floyd Ray
Floyd Ray Allen 1917 ~2005  Our father, grandfather, great- grandfather, Floyd
Ray Allen, 87, of Salt Lake City, passed away peacefully on January 1, 2005 of
causes incident to age. He was an uncomplicated man with strong character and
unquestionable love of family. He set the kind of living example absolutely
worth emulating. He left us in the same way he lived his life, with dignity
spiced with subtle wit almost to the end. His bright spirit and love shone
even in the last two weeks of life when his body had simply worn out. That
love will stay with us always.  Dad was born in Salt Lake City on August 10,
1917 to Orson Allen and Elizabeth Jane Russell Allen. He grew up as one of
nine children sharing a wide variety of experiences with his siblings that
have lasted a lifetime. In our family circle, tales of the large Allen family
remain legendary.  Dad was a printer by trade. He worked 40 years for the
Newspaper Agency Corporation. Nevertheless, he enjoyed his pastime. He loved
golf, bowling, working in the yard, taking walks in the early morning, and
spending time with Mom.  He started courting Mom, then Elaine Hennefer, in
November of 1935 while she was still attending East High School. They were
married on May 12, 1938 and were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on October 5
that same year. Their 66+ years together have formed a wonderful relationship
that will last through eternity.  Floyd and Elaine raised four boys, making
the necessary sacrifices to allow each child to succeed in his realm of
interest. Dad took exceptional pride in his family and never hesitated to brag
about his "boys" to anyone and everyone. Over the years he extended his love
and devotion for his family to 16 grandchildren and 25 great-grandchildren.
Each loved him dearly. They affectionately referred to him as their "cute
little antique".  Religion played a central role in Floyd's life. He was a
devout member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints serving in
many positions. He and Mom served a mission in the Liberty Stake in Salt Lake.
Dad later served as bishop of the Liberty 8th Ward. The two also served as
temple workers for more than 16 years. A debilitating stroke in 2003 severely
limited Floyd's capacity to serve.  Since Dad's stroke, Mom devoted her energy
to do everything possible to help him enjoy his last two years. Aside from
making him comfortable, she made sure he remained an integral part of the
family. His influence never diminished with his sons, grandchildren, or
great-grandchildren. Floyd is survived by his wife Elaine, four sons C. Dwayne
(Marilyn) of Arizona, F. Kent (Irmgard) of Germany, Craig L. Ann) of Texas,
and M. Scott (Carolyn) of Bountiful, Utah. He is also survived by his twin
brother Lloyd Jay Allen. He was preceded in death by his parents, one sister
Elva, and brothers Melvin, Lester, Vernon, Lawrence, Earl, and Clyde. 
Services will be held on Wednesday, January 5th at 12:00 noon at the Colonial
Hills First Ward, 1455 South 1700 East in Salt Lake. A viewing will be at
Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park, 3401 South Highland Drive on Tuesday, January 4th
from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. Friends may also call one hour prior to the
services on Wednesday. We will bury our father at Wasatch Lawn. In lieu of
flowers, the family requests contributions be made to Residence Hospice by

age of 73. She was a loving wife, mother and grandmother. She was a generous,

McMeen, William Otho
William Otho McMeen 1908 ~ 2005  Our dear 96 year-old father/
grandfather/great-grandfather-known to his posterity as "Grampy"- left us on
the first morning of 2005, January 1st.William Otho McMeen, born in Dixon,
Illinois, on August 28, 1908 (parents, Edward Kurtz McMeen and Helena
Anderson) died peacefully with his wife of 17 years, Dorothy Jacobs Davey
McMeen, at his side. He was one of the "Greatest Generation." Almost living
for an entire century, "Grampy" survived his older sister Ruth, and younger
brother Bob. To get his education, he worked hard on a paper route, finally
graduating from the University of Washington in engineering. During the
depression he worked for Safeway- where his store survived a robbery. When he
finally got a job with the Bureau of Reclamation drawing spillways for dams,
he moved to Denver and met Frances Murphy (1905). They were married in 1937,
sealed in the Salt Lake Temple in 1946, and were married for over 50 years
until her death in 1987. They had four children, Marilyn Frances (Bill Brown),
Elaine Kay (Lawrence Flake), Sylvia Ann (Bill Whitson) and David William
McMeen (Becky Merrill). His exemplary life is characterized by his love for
the Lord and his incredible work ethic. A convert, he read the Book of Mormon
under a small lightbulb in the hull of one of the World War II destroyers lost
in Pearl Harbor. His work ethic? He never complained about working. Wisely he
purchased pieces of income property and while working at his government job
and selling Watkins products after hours, he refurbished, painted, and
restored old houses until he built an impressive estate. After his wife's
death, he remembered a cheery nurse they had known in his ward and looked her
up in Salt Lake City. Their first date was to McDonald's. Dorothy has been the
most wonderful blessing a family could ask for. Always there beside him to
read to him when his eyesight faded, always there to hold him up when he could
not walk, Dorothy and her family, Jeanne Davey, Bruce Davey (Kristen), Brent
Davey, and Marilyn Springay (Rob), plus her extended family, have all been a
great blessing in Grampy's life. This man's remarkably long life is an
impressive example of perseverance. Until a few months ago he was doing 32
pushups every day. For years he rose early, walked several miles, worked hard,
retired early, ate little. He pressed forward in everything he did with a
fastness of purpose and a love for the Lord. At every visit when asked, "How
do you feel," he said, "Fine." He woke up Saturday morning, showered, put on
his tie (he always wore a tie) and prepared to watch his favorite programs. He
loved the BYU devotionals. He also loved baseball. When he got up, he
collapsed in the hall, and his upstairs neighbor, Ray Valgardson- who built
Grampy's last properties- was the "man upstairs" who came down and lifted him
up in his arms to carry him to his last bed on this earth. Grandma Dorothy
held his hand. It couldn't have been more beautiful. Funeral services will be
held on Friday, January 7, 2004 at 11:00 a.m. at the Spring Creek Chapel, 1745
South State Street, Provo. A viewing will be held Thursday, January 6th at
Walker Family Mortuary, 85 East 300 South, Provo from 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. and
