Haws, Edith Broadbent
Edith Broadbent Haws 1907 ¥ 2005 LEHI - Our dear mother and grandmother, Edith
Broadbent Haws, age 97, of Lehi, UT, passed away surrounded by her family on
Thursday, June 2, 2005 at her home from causes incident to age. She was born
Dec. 6, 1907 in Lehi, UT, to Joseph Samuel and Annie Shaw Broadbent. She
married her husband, Jay Knollin Haws, Nov. 3, 1933 in the Salt Lake LDS
Temple. After 8 years, she has been reunited with her sweetheart. Following
her graduation from Lehi High School, she attended the LDS Business College in
Salt Lake City. Upon her marriage to Jay, she worked and helped in several
family businesses. She and Dad spent many hours doing genealogy and temple
work in the first years of their marriage which became a hobby during their
entire life. Her favorite job, however, was being a Mom and a Grandmother. She
provided untiring love and support to children and grandchildren. The Gospel
was very important in the life of Mother. Her payday in life was when her
children were doing and serving as we had been taught from childhood. Mom was
very patriotic and supported her sons and son-in-law as they served for many
years in the Utah Army National Guard. She loved growing flowers, especially
her roses and the family garden. She was a member of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter-day Saints where she served faithfully in many callings. Her
favorite was serving as the Lehi Fifth Ward Relief Society President where she
and the other sisters enjoyed quilting, making meat pies cooking and baking
for Ward dinners. She was an ordinance worker in the Provo LDS Temple for 14
years and served two missions with her husband in the Sidney Australia Mission
(1971-73) and the Missionary Training Center, SLC (1974-75). Dad and Mother
loved to travel and took many of their grandchildren (3 at a time) to the
Church Historical sites in the East and the Palmyra Pageant in New York. Edith
is survived by three sons and one daughter: John Knollin (Deanna Eggli) Haws
of Lehi, Joseph Hugh (Deanna Lee) Haws of Riverton, Ralph Jay (Connie Dean)
Haws of South Jordan currently serving in the West Indies Mission at Trinidad,
and Elaine Haws (J.H.) Hadfield of American Fork, 23 grandchildren, four
step-grandchildren, 65 great-grandchildren, and 6 great-great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband, and two brothers, John
Samuel and Alvin Dixon Broadbent and two sisters, Tora Broadbent Loveridge,
and Ruth Broadbent Wagstaff Lamoreau and a granddaughter and great-grandson.
Special thanks is extended to friends and grandchildren for their kindness,
untiring love and care given to Grandma over the past several years, i.e.
Leslie Desouza, Ryan and Julie Rocque, Laurene Dinehart and family, John K.
Haws Jr. and family, Victor and Dallys Armenta, Elizabeth and Jarom Huntsman,
