Atkinson, Hazen K. (Memoriam)
IN LOVING MEMORY OF HAZEN K. ATKINSON July 18, 1943 - June 9, 2004You can shed
tears that he is gone, or you can smile because he has lived. You can close
your eyes and pray that he'll come back, or you can open your eyes and see all
he has left. Your heart can be empty because you can't see him, or you can be
full of the love he shared. You can remember him and only that he's gone, or
you can cherish his memory and let it live on. You can cry and close your
mind, be empty and turn your back, or you can do what he'd want; smile, open
your eyes, love, and go on. I will love you forever, Your loving wife Vickie.
We love and miss you Melanie, Kyrsten, Taryn, and your extended family the
Earls and the Rhoads.

Bleazard, Ruth Gibson
Ruth Gibson Bleazard, 83, died peacefully on June 2, 2005 in a local hospital.
Ruth was born January 18, 1922 in Ogden, Utah, the youngest of three daughters
born to John Gibson and Elizabeth Sewell Gibson. She attended Ogden area
schools and graduated in the Ogden High Class of 1940. She had fond memories
of the two years she spent at the Heald Business School in San Francisco,
California; that city held a very special place in her heart. Ruth Gibson and
Glen Call Bleazard were married on April 5, 1944 in the Salt Lake Temple of
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Ruth and Glen made their home
in Ogden Utah, where she worked for the Continental Baking Company, the
Defense Depot, and the Internal Revenue Service. All five of their children
were born in Ogden. Close friendships and ties to the "old neighborhood" in
Ogden continue to this day. In 1963, the family moved to Boise, and Ruth
continued her career in government employment. She was promoted to Secretary
to the Forest Supervisor of the Boise National Forest before she retired in
1982. Ruth was a remarkable homemaker and a wonderful cook. Family meals and
holiday celebrations were treasured special events. Ruth was a life-long,
active member of the Church and served faithfully in many capacities. She was
also a member and officer in the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers. Her favorite
pastimes were attending games and concerts where, of course, her children and
grandchildren were the stars. She was especially proud of her missionary
grandsons. She set a marvelous example of devotion to her family and the
Church. Ruth is survived by her five children: John Bleazard, of San Mateo CA,
Kathryn Erickson (Garry), of Orem UT, and Diane Campbell, Mark Bleazard
(Kristie), and Caralee Johnson (George) of Boise, ID; 20 grandchildren, and 21
great-grandchildren with three more on the way, as well as numerous cousins,
nieces and nephews. Ruth was preceded in death by her devoted husband of 57 y
ears, her parents, and both sisters. The family wishes to express our
gratitude for the kind and gentle care Mom received from her friends at Ida
Health and Comfort Keepers. Our deepest appreciation to Dr. Elizabeth
Olberding, who treated Mom with such great love and dignity. Funeral services
will be held Saturday, June 11, 2005 at 1:00 p.m. at the L.D.S. chapel located

Hatch, W. Gene
SALT LAKE CITY - Wilda Gene Glasmann Hatch, age 87, passed on June 7th in her
home surrounded by family and loving caretakers. When Gene passed on, she left
her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren a legacy to share with all
Utahns. Gene was a quiet but effective voice for the beautiful redrock canyons
and plateaus of Southern Utah. With her husband, George Hatch, and other
conservationists, Gene helped establish Capitol Reef and Canyonlands National
Parks, expand the borders of Glen Canyon National Recreation Area, add lands
to Arches National Park and create Antelope Island State Park. As a young
woman, Gene was deeply concerned about the welfare of migrant workers. In 1937
she interrupted her studies at Stanford University to offer assistance to
those hit hardest by the depression. An accomplished debater, Gene met her
match when she debated young George C. Hatch. In fact, he was her match and
their marriage thrived over sixty years. Together, Gene and George lovingly
raised a large family and expanded the Glasmann communication business. From
1955 to 1993, Gene was Director and President of the Standard Corporation
which included The Ogden Standard Examiner, KUTV television, KALL radio and
many other communication businesses. Gene's active career was arrested by the
onset of Alzheimer's disease. For 20 years, Gene struggled with the
debilitating disease. George, her children and caregivers tenderly cared for
her over the long duration of her sickness. The family is grateful for the
kindness of Gene's doctor, Dr. Cherie Brunker; the staff of Hospice, longtime
friends Bill and Donna Vogel and Gene's many caregivers. We especially thank
Rawlin and Marcia Pinkerman, Jean Taylor, Jeanie Eames and Raquel Luz for many
hours of kind and expert care. Gene was born November 28, 1917 in Ogden, Utah,
to Abraham Lincoln and Edris Alida Toombs Glasmann. She graduated Phi Beta
Kappa from Stanford University and received an Honorary Degree, Doctor of
Human ities, in 1981 from Weber State University, Ogden, Utah. Her husband is
George C. Hatch, and her children are: Michell Arnow, Orlando, FL; Diane Orr,
Salt Lake City, UT; Jeffrey (Peggy) Hatch, Salt Lake City, UT; Randall (Ann)
Hatch, Salt Lake City, UT; Deepika Avanti (Carlos Ogsbury) Gold Hill, CO; 15
grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Close friends and family are
invited to celebrate the gentle and bright life of Gene Hatch on Thursday,
June 16 from 5 to 7 p.m. at the home of Jeffrey Hatch. In lieu of flowers,
friends are encouraged to support organizations preserving Utah's desert
wildlands and groups dedicated to understanding and curing Alzheimer's
disease. Funeral Directors, Lindquist's Ogden Mortuary. Email condolences to
