Yvonne Comer Bell
ST. GEORGE -- Yvonne Comer Bell, age 79, passed away Wednesday, December 15,
2004, at her home in St. George, Utah. She was born February 8, 1925 in Kansas
City, Missouri, a daughter of John William and Willie Ann Moore Asher. She
married Edgar Wallace Malone December 31, 1943. To this union was born a
daughter, Bonnie, who they raised in Kansas City. She and Edgar were divorced
shortly thereafter, and she married David T. Comer February 8, 1947. Their
marriage was solemnized in the Oakland Temple in 1965. To this union were born
three sons, David, Danny, and Greg. Her husband, David, preceded her in death,
and she married Val Dee Bell August 22, 1969. He also preceded her in death.
David was a career military man, and in 1956 they relocated to Riverside,
California for a brief time, and then on to Sacramento, where Yvonne lived
near her sister, Vivian.
While in Sacramento, Yvonne converted to The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints.
After David's death, she moved her family to Provo, Utah in 1966, and there,
she was employed as a meat wrapper at Carson's Market for many years. In 1991,
she moved to Santa Clara, where she lived with her son, Danny, and his wife,
Lois. After Danny passed away in March of 1998, Yvonne lived with her son,
Greg, and his wife, Fay Ann.
Yvonne, an active and faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints, served in many callings throughout her life, including that
of a St. George Temple Ordinance worker. Yvonne loved to sing, and she shared
her talent by singing in ward choirs.
Those who knew Yvonne would say that they never heard her say a bad word about
anyone. She was a giving, kind, and gentle woman who loved children and
animals.
Yvonne is survived by her: daughter, Bonnie (David) Malone, of Seattle, WA;
sons, David T. Comer, Jr., of San Diego, CA, and Greg (Fay Ann) Comer, of St.
George, UT; daughter-in-law, Lois Comer, of Ivins, UT; 16 grandchildren; 10

and brother, Reggie Asher.
