Hospital in Gunnison, Utah. Alta was born in Vernal, Utah, on February 4,
1916, the daughter of Charles Patton and Mary Caroline Moore Fox. She was the
fourth child in a family of seven with three older brothers (Lawrence, Morrill
and Lowell), two younger brothers (Leland and Weldon) and a sister (Mae). Alta
was the last living member of this family. At the Vernal Elementary School,
Alta was a bright and mature student. At the end of the first grade she was

activities. At the age of 16, she was called to be ward music director. Over
the next 40 years, she was chorister in one of the organizations of the
Church. She had a beautiful singing voice and sang many vocal solos. Alta
graduated from Uintah High School at the age of 16. Alta worked three places:
she typed for the high school, kept books for Newton brothers Harness and
Saddle Company and spent several years as chief night telephone operator. Alta
said many times, her life did not begin until she met Nyals Andreason. Nyals
came from Salina, Utah to teach at Uintah High School in 1938. Alta was the
stake dance director. In the preparation for the annual Gold & Green Ball, she
met Nyals and taught him the dances. This was the beginning of a year and a
half courtship. Alta and Nyals were married and sealed for eternity in the
Salt Lake LDS Temple, June 12, 1940. They raised three outstanding sons: Nyals
A.; Aaron W. and Jon K. Alta took care of the older two sons while Nyals was a
communications officer in the U.S. Navy from July 1944 to April 1946. From
1946 to 1948 Alta taught health and girls P.E. at Alterra High School where
Nyals was the principal. During the summers they lived in Salt Lake City where
Nyals completed a master's degree at the "U". They lived for two years in
Berkeley where Nyals was working on a doctorate. Alta worked at Hinks
Department Store. Alta and Nyals lived in Norwalk, California for 32 years
where Nyals was a principal. For two years Alta was the secretary to the
principal of Downey High School. For over 16 years, Alta was the assistant to
the dean of admissions at Cerritos College in Norwalk, California. During this
time Alta served in many Church positions. Alta and Nyals were members of the
Southern California Mormon Choir. For two years Alta was president of the
Southern California Oratorio Society. Each year this organization presented
Handel's "Messiah" in the Los Angeles Philharmonic Auditorium with a full
orchestra. In 1982, Alta and Nyals had retired and returned to Utah to build a
new home in Salina. With her husband, Alta served a two year mission in the
Richfield Family History Center. For six years, Alta was secretary to the
Board of Directors of the North Sevier Senior Citizens Center. Alta was
president to the Six County Senior Citizen Advisory Council for two years.
Alta was a very loving, caring wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother
with 10 grandchildren and 13 great-grandchildren. She will be greatly missed.

parents. Deana (along with her twin sister Darlene) is the oldest of six
children. Growing up in Heber, Deana is adventurous, outgoing and vivacious.
Deana, her twin and friends were involved in many fun-spirited capers during
their high school years at Wasatch High. She was the life of the party and the
heart of our family. These traits would stay with her through her entire life.
Deana is loved by her entire family and everyone blessed enough to have known
her. Mother worked for Dr. Conklin, who was visually impaired, doing all of
his needle work (injections). She loved this job and made many friends. She

successful electrical contracting business. Deana loved spending time with her
family, cooking, reading, shopping and traveling. She and her husband enjoyed
traveling the California and Oregon coast in the summer and in the winter as
avid snowbirds in Arizona. She had a flair for cooking and could make any dish
taste divine. She served with gracious enthusiasm in many church callings. She
especially enjoyed working with the youth as it gave her the opportunity to be
with her children as she served the Lord. Mother was truly a choice daughter
of our Father in Heaven. Whenever she saw anyone in need, she always did all
she could to help. She especially loved sharing a good story and spent
countless hours on the telephone with friends and family. Survived by her
loving and eternal companion Clive; sisters Darlene (Eugene) Probst, Mary

greatly enjoyed his last work assignment near Naresborough, England. He made
many good friends there, who gave him the moniker "Vog Rampant". (His family
never found out the exact reason for this nickname, and would appreciate it if
none of his friends stepped forward to offer an explanation!). Upon retiring,
he settled in Carson City, Nevada. Jim was a very friendly person, with a dry
wit and an analytical mind. He often helped out friends and family
financially, and was very generous. He enjoyed working on cars, bowling,
shooting, playing cards, reading, watching football, and most of all, just
hanging out with good friends. He is survived by his two children: Karla (Tim)
Meyn of Ridgecrest, CA; and Joe (Allison) Stewart of Riverton, UT. He is also
survived by five grandchildren: Kady Meyn and Isaac, Ben, Kimberly, and Timmo

tiring, he bore the burden without complaining. He was a unique person, and
will be sorely missed by his family and friends. A memorial service will be
held 11 a.m. Friday, March 25th at Walton's Chapel of the Valley, 1281 N. Roop
St., Carson City. For info, call 775-882-4965. The family asks that in lieu of
