She was born August 28, 1938, in Cardston, Alberta, Canada, to Bertrand Richard Godfrey and Rosezella Glenn Godfrey. When Marie was approximately one year old, her family moved to Northern Utah where she was raised and educated. She attended elementary and secondary schools in Midvale, UT, was a graduate of Jordan High School, received an Associates of Arts degree from the University of Utah, and a Bachelors Degree from Brigham Young University. She married Paul Hedman on May 29, 1957, in the Salt Lake Temple. Over their 47 years of marriage, she lived with her husband and children in many locations across the U.S.: Van Nuys, Woodland Hills, and Redlands, CA; Brigham City, Orem, and Provo, UT; Arlington, VA; Gaithersburg, MD; and Dayton, OH. She and her husband retired to St. George, UT, in 2001. Marie was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where she served in many callings, including approximately 30 combined years as Ward Choir Director in many different wards across the U.S.A. Marie loved to teach and was a certified elementary school teacher. One of her most memorable teaching experiences was when she taught I Am a Child of God to the K-8th grades in Saint Lukes Parochial School in the Washington D.C. area. Marie also enjoyed adventures, like traveling cross-country in an old Volkswagen with only an 11-year-old boy as a navigator. And then there was the time when Marie and Damons flight into Washington, D.C., was diverted to Dulles Airport where it was met by many emergency vehicles with red lights flashing. An unscheduled landing where the pilot came into the cabin reading his instruction book had preceded this. Then there was the tornado watch!
