Roy G. Henrichsen "1916 ~ 2005" Roy Giles Henrichsen, 89, passed away
Wednesday, June 29, 2005. He was born March 29, 1916 in Provo, Utah, to Edwin
Roy and Beulah Marie Giles Henrichsen, the fourth child in a family of twelve
children. Roy completed his high school years at Provo High, and attended two
years at Brigham Young Academy. Education was very important to Roy, and he
made it possible for all three of his daughters to graduate from the
University of Utah. He also helped many others get their education. He married
LaDeane Harker September 3, 1938 in Provo, Utah. They enjoyed 66 years of
adventures together, including, golfing (he got a hole-in-one), hunting (he
always bagged a deer), fishing (everyone always got their limit, but had to
learn to clean them) and boating (in a boat made by his own hands). Roy was
employed for 30 years as a decorator for Sears, Roebuck & Co. He retired from
there in 1978. At this time Roy and LaDeane began spending half the year in
Salt Lake and half the year in St. George at the Twin Lakes Golf Course. They
enjoyed their many friends and golf buddies there until poor health required
them to stay in Salt Lake year round. But of all the places in the world (just
don't ask about Alaska!), Roy loved Fish Lake the most. We enjoyed many years
of summer vacations there in the family cabin. It was in the cold waters of
Fish Lake that he taught his girls to water ski and not fall in! Roy was a
member of the LDS Church and a loving Christian who would gladly give you the
shirt off his back if he thought you needed it more than he did. If there was
any way he could help you out, he would do it readily. He was a wonderful
father and a greater than great husband. He is survived by his wife;
daughters, Patrea (Craig) Liljenquist, Lynda Batley, Marsha (Robert)
Breinholt; 17 grandchildren; 29 great - grandchildren; two brothers, Lloyd

die young. He passed away peacefully while getting ready for breakfast, June

Assistance Living Center from Cottonwood Hospital the day before after another
bout with pneumonia. He will be truly missed by all the many people that knew
him. He married Delores M. Parker June 20, 1935. He and his love of a lifetime
enjoyed much during their younger years, (their 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's.),
traveling and camping in their fifth-wheel. They enjoyed being with family and
friends, going to the canyons and playing their banjo's while all were singing
around the campfire at night. He and Delores also enjoyed bowling in several
leagues. Rulon graduated from East High School, studied to be a certified
public account but did not want to leave his current employer, Premium Oil
Company, to work in a accounting office for two years in order to become a
CPA. He said that he didn't think taking the CPA test would have made any
difference in his profession, but he did regret never taking the final test.
His ability in accounting did pay off however because he was promoted to
supervisor over Premium Oil's 32 retail service stations, before moving on to
more responsibilities. In his younger days he worked on his fathers farm, had
a paper route, worked as a service station attendant, a service station
manager, worked on a natural gas pipeline between Wyoming and Salt Lake City,

at Shell Oil Company across the street from the feed store, worked for Utah
Oil Refining Company, then in 1935 began working for Premium Oil, and this was
the beginning of his life long career with that company. He worked for them
for 67 years. He was phenomenal at facts and figures. During his life he was
Vice President of Premium Oil Company, President of Premoco Oil Company,
President of PR Transport Company, and Secretary-Treasurer of Leeoco Oil
Company. In Oct., 2002, at the age of 95 he retired because of health reasons,
however, still maintained his position on the board of directors. He resigned
from the board of directors in 2004. He said that he couldn't ask for a better
company to work for, and that it had been an enjoyable 67 years. Survived by
daughter, Jean (Ed) Smith, Taylorsville, UT; son, Robert (Sue) Hymas,
Herriman, UT; Delores's son, Jack (Arlene) Hymas, St. George, UT; Delores's

Care, and Harmony Hospice for the excellent care they gave to our very loving
father. Also a special thank you to the Golden Living Center for their care of
our wonderful father. He had a smile for all and nobody ever heard him say one
unkind word about anyone. He was always willing to be of any service he could
to anyone and was the most agreeable man anyone ever meet. He was a true
believer in "live and let live". His warm kindness and terrific attitude will
never be forgotten by those who meet him. Funeral services will be held Wed.,

dignity and was an example for all. Blair was born March 8, 1940 in Raymond,
Alberta, Canada. His parents were Alfred and Bonita Critchfield Jensen. He had
six sisters and three brothers. Blair was proud of his Canadian roots and
Raymond and always treasured this great heritage of hard-working, giving
people who cared for others more than themselves. The Critchfield and Jensen
families were early colonizers on the beautiful flat prairies around Magrath
and Raymond. Blair worked in farming and ranching as a young man and never
lost his love for the land. He served as a missionary for The Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints in the Southwest Indian Mission from 1961-1964. He
was returning from the mission field to Raymond when he met his eternal
companion, Ada Siler, on a bus in southeast Idaho. Six months later, they were
married in the Idaho Falls Temple on August 29, 1964. They gave new meaning to
the advertising slogan "Take the bus and leave the driving to us." From this

Church in the information systems area for over 38 years and was blessed to
see the unfolding of technology needed to meet the needs of the Lord's work.
His sweetheart, Ada, passed away from ALS in 1999, a loss from which he never
fully recovered. He was blessed with another loving eternal companion when he
married Weltha Jane Forsyth on July 27, 2001 in the Jordan River Temple.
Blair's life was blessed beyond measure to be served by, and to associate
with, many wonderful people and friends, starting with missionary service and
through school, career, his neighborhood, ward and stake. He was pleased to
serve in many assignments at the ward and stake level, most recently as an
ordinance worker in the Jordan River Temple. His favorite calling was with Ada
in the primary organization. Blair was dearly loved and will be deeply missed.

Lyle, Yvonne V.
Yvonne V. Lyle 1911 ~ 2005 Yvonne passed away peacefully June 26th to rejoin
the love of her life Burton, who preceded her in death on May 18th. They were
a wonderful example of love and devotion. They had an ideal marriage and on
July 12th were about to embark on their 67th year. She is survived by her son,
Allan, her daughter-in-law Patricia, her grandchildren Malia and Jack and her
many excellent friends. Yvonne led a very interesting and productive life. She
was an only child born in a farmhouse outside the small town of Elgin in
Southern Manitoba. For the fourth grade she was sent to board in Elgin, for
school. Yvonne was very intelligent and was advanced several years of
schooling. At the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg, she completed her four
year degree and one year of "Normal" or teachers training and got her first
teaching job at the age of 21, teaching grades fifth to eighth in the small
three room school in Lyleton, Manitoba. Unfortunately by that time she had
lost both her parents, however the good news was that she met her devoted
future husband, Burton in Lyleton. This being the depression, the school
district couldn't pay teachers with anything beyond a token amount with room
and board, however she helped keep the school open and the following year she
moved to a paid position teaching grade school in Winnipeg. After a lengthy
courtship, mainly through letters, Yvonne and Burton were married on July 12,
1939. This marked the true beginning of her life. They settled in the small
mining town of Flin Flon and eventually moved to Salt Lake in 1950. Yvonne was
a very accomplished artist, painting with water colors, oils and sketching
with charcoal. She was an excellent seamstress and loved to knit, crochet, and
she was never without a project. She loved to play the piano and in her youth
particularly enjoyed playing duets with her life long friend, Evelyn Ross.
Another of her strengths was entertaining and she and Burton hosted many
dinner and bridge parties with many friends and neighbors. Yvonne's
outstanding qualities and character traits would be best summed up stating
that she truly lived by the Golden Rule. She was a very devoted wife and
mother, she was patient, humble, independent, and empathetic and she had a
strong will. She read voraciously, was active in her church, Wasatch
Presbyterian. She was always up on the activities of the community and aware
of what was happening nationally and around the globe. Yvonne loved to teach
and she continued to do so her whole life. She is going to be missed deeply by
her family and friends, however, her memory will serve as a measure of decency
and dedication for all who knew her. The family would like to extend a special
thanks to her many friends who cared for her and who loved her, from the
membership and Clergy of Wasatch Presbyterian Church, to the staff and
Residents of Highland Cove and Highland Care Center. In lieu of flowers she
requested that a donation be made to the non denominational Shriner's Hospital
for Children, Intermountain Unit, Fairfax and Virginia Ave, SLC 84103. A
memorial service will be held Saturday, July 9, at 11:30 a.m. at Wasatch
Presbyterian 1526 South 17th East, Salt Lake City, 84108.

Miner, Angela Sue
Angela Miner 5/3/1979 ~ 7/1/2005 HIGHLAND, UT - Our sweet, angelic daughter,
sister, aunt, granddaughter, and friend, Angela Sue Miner, 26, passed away
peacefully July 1, 2005. Angie was born May 3, 1979 to Larry and Betty Jean
Miner. She was a fun-loving, adventuresome child. Angie was always looking out
for those around her who needed a friend or a smile. She was loved by all who
knew her and had the ability to draw people to her. Angie's "mission" began in
October of 1990 when she was diagnosed, at the age of 11, with a malignant
brain tumor. She faced the surgery, chemo, radiation, and any number of other
trials with great faith and courage. Her physical stature was but a small
sampling of the great spiritual giant that she was. She had many physical
limitations, which included being legally blind, but her spirit was bigger
than life and she tackled each obstacle that came her way with a smile and a
happy heart. Angie never complained or questioned the Lord's plan for her. She
faced her many challenges head on with unflinching courage! One of her
greatest accomplishments was her graduation from Lehi High School, with
honors, in 1997. Angie was always concerned about others and did many great
things to show her love and support to those facing trials of their own. Her
little hands made almost 100 crocheted hats which she donated to the Church's
Humanitarian Center in the hope that her efforts might bring warmth and
comfort to someone less fortunate than herself. She also miraculously oil
painted many gorgeous landscapes with her beloved friend, Lavone Moulton, who
told her at her first art lesson not to be discouraged that she couldn't paint
a straight tree because there are no straight trees in nature. Well, Little
Ang, there may not be any straight trees in nature, but you are a straight
arrow. Your mission now on earth is done. You've been a valiant daughter of
our Heavenly Father's and we know that He loves you and will care for you
until we see you again. Thanks for all the lessons you so valiantly taught us.
You have been an angel here on earth and we hope to live worthy to live with
you through eternity! We love you, Angie, and will miss you greatly. We're so
happy for you to be freed from the body that has held you captive for so long
- enjoy your freedom, little Ang! We love you and can't wait to see you again!
Angie is survived by her parents, Larry and Betty Jean Miner (Highland); two
sisters and three brothers, Kristie (Shawn Hadfield), Reed (Hila-ry), Scott
(Colette), Mike and Whitney; and nine nieces and nephews, Trevor, Shaundelyn,
Morgan, Caleb, Kaden, Hadley, Kash, Oakley, Tate; and grandparents, Lois
Madsen (American Fork), Darwin and Bonnie Miner (Highland). She was preceded
in death by her grandfather, Alma A. Madsen. A viewing will be held Tuesday,
July 5, from 6-8 p.m. in the Wing Mortuary, 118 E. Main, Lehi. Funeral
