In 1997 Harry and Betty were victims of carbon monoxide poisoning, with Harry passing away. After recovering and learning how to walk, talk and do daily tasks, Betty then fought a valiant battle against dementia and Alzheimer disease. She was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latte r-day Saints, where she had served as a primary teacher, compassionate service leader, and stake Sunday School secretary. She received a serviceman's mother award. She was a foster mother to many children. She helped organize the PTA in Riverdale. She worked as a waitress and a school lunch cook at Ben Lomond High School for 13 years, and various other schools. She was a member of the Utah Daughters of the Pioneers, which she truly enjoyed; she also was involved in the African Violet Club, and the Fraternal Order of The Eagles. She had a beautiful yard where she enjoyed being among her flowers. She was always giving to others through service. She raised Pomeranians, Australian Shepherds, canaries and finches. Betty always had treats for whoever came to visit and you couldn't leave without one. She was a loving caring person who loved everyone unconditionally. Betty is survived by her children, Marvin Jarman, Ogden; Gordon (Ardith) Jarman, Harrisville; Marla Moore, Brigham City; Eugene (S hirley) Jarman, Pingree, ID; Bruce (Dixie) Jarman, Clinton; and Juleen (Dennis) Moss, Farr West. She is also survived by 41 grandchildren; 62 great-grandchildren; and many great-great-grandchildren; plus many step-children, -grandchildren, -great-grandchildren, and -great-great-grandchildren, whom she loved as her own. Betty was preceded in death by her parents, her husbands, four brothers, four sisters, and five grandchildren. We would like to thank those at Manor Care who gave loving care and kindness to our mother.
