Anderson, Dantzel Tingey
Dantzel Tingey Anderson passed away on Friday, October 28, 2004, at the home
of her son in Provo. She was born July 22, 1918, to Melvin Hyrum Tingey and
Annie Romer Tingey in Brigham City , Utah. Her father died of influenza in the
epidemic of 1918, only three and one-half months following Dantzels birth,
leaving his young widow to rear two children by herself. Her older brother,
Newell, was Dantzels protector, and her mother set an impressive example of
independence and resourcefulness, as she educated herself and provided for her
family, playing an important role in the health care of the community.
Starting out as a home health care nurse, she eventually became an
anesthesiologist, assisted with surgeries, and saw to the administration of
the Coolie Hospital in Brigham City. She maintained a small apartment in the
hospital where Dantzel and her brother grew up.
Following her graduation from Box Elder High School, Dantzel moved to Salt
Lake City to attend Nursing School at LDS Hospital and the U. of U.,
graduating with the class of 1939. She was working at LDS Hospital when she
met Ralph Willard Anderson of Elsinore. They were married in the Manti Utah
Temple on her birthday, July 22, 1940, and set up housekeeping in Salt Lake
City, where Ralph eventually started his own accounting office with Dantzel as
his partner in business and life.
They happily welcomed four children into their home, as they led busy lives of
service in their church and community. Over the ensuing years, Dantzel
volunteered her time and skills at Primary Childrens Hospital and the Red
Cross, and tutored at an elementary school across town. She was active in the
church and served as Primary President in her ward, stake, and also at Primary
Childrens Hospital. She served as an MIA teacher, visiting teacher, and she
taught the 7-8 year olds in Primary for many years.
Ralph and Dantzel celebrated 55 happy years together. After Ralphs death in
October of 1995, she was content to stay in her home, surrounded by the
friends and neighbors she and Ralph had grown to love. Following a stroke in
June, 2001, Dantzel had resided with or been in the company of one or more of
her children at all times.
Dantzel loved to travel, and she and Ralph took many wonderful trips around
the world with friends and family. Their children and their spouses will long
treasure the memories they share of times spent exploring fun and exciting
places with Ralph, Dantzel and each other.

Warner, JoAnn Pennington
Our beloved wife, mother, and grandmother returned to her Heavenly Home after
leaving her family and friends with a wonderful example of what a positive,
kind, caring attitude can achieve. One of Heavens angels, Sweet Jodie, passed
away at home, Wednesday, October 27, 2004, after a courageous 10-year battle
with cancer. Her loving husband and family surrounded her.
Jodie was born February 28, 1933, in Springville, the daughter of Henry
 Harry  and Melba Bate Pennington. She graduated from Springville High School
where she was a SHS Cheerleader. She married Ronald Lynn Warner, August 30,
1951. Their first home was in San Diego, California, where Ron was stationed
in the Navy. They returned there on their 50th wedding anniversary to be
sealed for time and eternity in the San Diego Temple.
She and Ron loved to travel, and especially enjoyed following their grandkids
from one baseball park to another or one dance recital after another. They
traveled the Mormon Trail often and enjoyed taking family members with them.
Lake Powell was one of her favorite destinations. They went down there on
their houseboat with Rons brother, Ray, and his wife, Myrl, as often as they
could. She never forgot a birthday, anniversary, graduation, or promotion,
even in the last days; she was worried about getting birthday cards to people.
She always thought of others first and herself last. When she was diagnosed
with cancer, her first words were  I dont have time to die  and with that
attitude she defied the doctors and fought for 10 more years to be with her
family.
She is survived by her loyal husband, Ron; four children: Michael (LuAnn)
Warner, Springville; Pat (Micheli) Warner, Mapleton; Julie Trotter, Orem; and
Keri (Corey) Allen, Mapleton; twelve grandchildren and fifteen
great-grandchildren; a sister, Venice Beals, Springville; and many nieces,
nephews, friends; and neighbors that are all better for knowing her. She was
preceded in death by her parents, and a sister, Enid Rowland.
The children would like to thank their dad for his example of selfless love,
care, and devotion.
Funeral services will be held Monday, November 1, 2004, at 11 a.m., in the
Timpview 5th Ward, 865 West 1000 North, Orem. Family and friends may call
Sunday from 6-8 p.m. at the Walker Sanderson Funeral Home, 646 East 800 North,
