Allred, Mabel Finlayson
Mabel Finlayson Allred 1919 ~ 2005 Born on January 11, 1919, a "blue baby" and
a twin during the World War I influenza epidemic, Mabel spent her first
moments in an oven being 'warmed up'. And how she warmed up to life! She lived
with a passion for beauty and a remarkable capacity for unconditional love.
She survived rheumatic fever, a sensitive nature, and raids by the FBI, and,
like Thoreau, spent a night in jail for her convictions. She walked in grace,
celebrating life and seeing always the best in others, including her parents,
Reginald Patrick Finlayson and Ettie Josephine Hanson, her sisters Birdie
(Covington) and Carol (Lloyd Sullivan) and Melba (her twin and her
sister-wife) and her brother (David Reginald). The love of her life was her
husband, Dr. Rulon C. Allred, who shared her delight in people and the Gospel
of Jesus Christ. She lavished her children, David Laddie (Terry), Joseph
Laurie (Julie), Jared Rulon (Joanne), Dorothy Jeanne Solomon (Bruce), Gary
Stephen (Bonnie), Robbie Marcus (Kayleen), with love and respect, bestowing a
legacy of personal freedom. She showered each of her 25 grandchildren with
individual appreciation. Her 13 great- grandchildren know that in Grandma
Mabel's kingdom, even "little people" matter, perhaps most of all. Her
romantic spirit, expressed through her piano playing at weddings, church
services, musical productions, and radio recordings, lives on in her many
students, in our hearts, and in paradise where she walks now with loved ones
who passed on before her. She was truly an elect lady, who continued to grow
throughout her life. After 65 years as the pianist of the Allred polygamous
group, she re-embraced her membership in the Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints and visited the LDS temple soon after her 84th birthday. She
passed away peacefully on May 6, 2005 at 6:30 a.m., due to complications
following surgery. Though she will be missed, her love will abide. We will
celebrate her life and comfort one another at a viewing on Tuesday, May 10,
2005, from 7 to 9 p.m. Larkin Mortuary, 260 East South Temple, Salt Lake City,
and on Wednesday, May 11, 2005, at a brief viewing (9:00-9:45 a.m.) followed
by the funeral at 10:00 a.m. at the Millcreek Eighth Ward, 4600 South 600
East. The graveside service takes place at Larkin Sunset Lawn Cemetery, 2350
East 1300 South, at 1:00 p.m.

Athletic Department at Olympus High School with Coach Bill Green and Coach
Carlos Asay in the early 1950's. Walt was a High School Teacher, which he

water activities. Walter served in the United States Navy during World War II.

California after a fall at home. Growing up in Brigham City, he graduated from
Box Elder High School in 1930 where he served as student body president. Four
years later he graduated from the University of Utah. On September 1, 1933, at
the beginning of his junior year in college, he and his one true love Mary
Merrell, whom he had met in the sixth grade, eloped to Coalville, Utah where
they were married - a marriage that ended only with her death, January 31,
2002. Grant and Mary were the parents of Nancy, wife of Robert L. Young of

grandson-in-law, John Barnhill, and several nephews and nieces. He was
preceded in death by his parents and brothers and sisters; Howard Valentine,
LaMar Valentine, Glen Valentine, Marie Valentine, Delone Carlisle, and Jack
Valentine. During his University of Utah years he was a member of Pi Kappa
Alpha and R.O.T.C. Following his graduation he did post graduate work at the
University of Southern California. Later, in 1952, he received a master's
degree from the Graduate School of Social Work at the University of Utah. From
1935-1940 he was a social worker, a school teacher, and served in the National
Guard. On March 3, 1941, all members of the National Guard were activated. He
served in the Pacific Theatre during World War II, he was decorated several
times, and was discharged in 1945 with the rank of Lt. Colonel. He later
served in the Army Reserve from which he officially retired in 1972 with the
rank of Colonel. Following World War II, he worked for the Veteran's
Administration in Sacramento, California until 1950. In 1952, before he
received his degree in Social Work, he began assisting his brother, Howard
Valentine, who had established Western States Refining Company. This led to
Grant establishing his oil jobbing, trucking company, and service station
business which he maintained from the 1950s into the 1970s. From the 1960s on
he and Mary traveled extensively - through North and South America, Europe,
Asia, and parts of Africa. Freighters were their favorite mode of travel which
often meant being at sea for several months. From 1960 on, he and Mary spent a
great deal of time in Laguna Beach where they owned a condominium overlooking
the Pacific Ocean. In Salt Lake they enjoyed the friends they made through the
Fort Douglas Officers Club, Ambassador Athletic Club, Fort Douglas Country
Club, Gyro, and in California, the Laguna Beach Lawn Bowling Club. His
daughter, Nancy, wrote a history of his life based on interviews she did with
him from 2002 until 2004. What mattered most to him was his family. No one
could have been more generous, especially with his love and this love was
returned by all of them. The highlights of his life were meeting Mary Merrell
(she always remained the most interesting person he ever knew); serving as
captain of the Box Elder High Basketball Team; his World War II service; lawn
bowling in Laguna Beach, and the many good friends he made along the way:
Clayte and Ruth Cheney, Dick and Bernice Jensen, Chapin and Jean Day, Gordon
and Norma Loveless and the good neighbors at Forest Glen Condominium's.
Special friends in California are Hank and Dorothy Benedict and Kay Marcom who
were all so kind to him during his last years in Laguna. Gordon Loveless and
Grant shared so many interests. They were as close as two friends could be and
great competitors playing Liar's Poker. Always an avid reader, Grant followed
faithfully current events and basketball on television. The family wished to
thank Laguna Beach doctors William Nelson and Harry Bruce and the staff at
Saddle Back Hospital for the excellent and thoughtful care they provided at
the end of his life. A celebration of his life will be held at Wasatch Lawn
Mortuary, Monday, May 9 at 2 p.m. Friends are invited to visit with the family
one hour prior to the service. In lieu of flowers, the family asks those who
wish, to make a contribution to their favorite charity, or to the Friends of
the Marriott Library, University of Utah, 84112, or Hospice of Saddle Back
Valley, 24044 Calle De La Plata, #200, Laguna Hills, CA 92653.
