Roundy, Iona
Iona Roundy 1924 ~ 2005 Iona, beloved sister, aunt and friend. Born December
1, 1924 in Cedar City, Utah, Iona was the second child of Horace Myron and
Harriet Williams Roundy. She died in Salt Lake City, January 27, 2005. Being
very precocious, she walked and talked at nine months of age. For ever after,
she talked, ran, teased and was fiercely independent. She was preceded in
death by her parents, a sister, Nedra Ence (Austin) and a niece. She is
survived by one sister, Marilyn Lindsay (Rao), four nephews and five nieces.
She attended schools in Kanarraville, Cedar City and Provo where she graduated
from high school. Although she attended BYU for many years, gaining many
credit hours, she could never decide on a major. For 38 years she was employed
by Mountain Bell and AT&T in Provo and Salt Lake, rising to various high
supervisory positions prior to her retirement. Completely devoted to the LDS
Church, she served three full time missions: New England, Temple Square (where
she reorganized and managed the Square's telephone service under Arch Madsen),
England and San Diego, and an 18 month stint at the Genealogical Library. She
also served several stake missions and held many responsible executive and
teaching positions in ward and stake auxiliaries. Traveling was one of her
favorite hobbies. She traveled extensively over the United States, Canada,
Europe, Australia, New Zealand, the South Pacific Islands and China. An avid
reader, she collected many books which will be donated to the Kanarraville
Library. Talented in handwork, she created beautiful tapestries, knitted many
coats and sweaters that she gave as gifts, studied painting, art and history.
She studied Braille, helping translate books for the blind, knitted caps for
the homeless and worked in homeless shelters. Her private generosity blessed
many. Funeral services will be held in the Bonneville Stake Center, 1535 E.

Thompson, Gary
Gary Thompson 9/1/43 ~ 1/30/04 January comes with sad regrets. It brings a day
we won't forget. A memory, a tear, a thought sincere of wonderful days when
you were here. A million times we've needed you. A million times we've cried.
If love alone could have saved you, you never would have died. In life we
loved you dearly, in death we love you still. In our hearts, you hold a memory
no one else could ever fill. It broke our hearts to lose you, but you didn't
go alone. For part of us went with you the day God took you home. Your loving
wife and family
