Born June 5, 1918. My bride, our sweet little Mama, our beloved grandmother, sister, and aunt, returned to our Heavenly Father and to the waiting arms of her parents, on March 28, 2001.
We were graced by her love and her beauty. Her nurturing spirit awakened within us, our spiritual potential.
With the gentle touch of her hands, she warmed the hearts of many. With inspired threads of creativity, she wove the fabric of our souls. Her love of books, which she shared, instilled a thirst for knowledge in us. Her joy in the garden was reflected for all to see. Springtime her favorite season, brought forth the abundance of daffodils, tulips and hyacinths. The songs of the birds beckoned her out to walk in her created sanctuary.
Lawrence, her eternal companion of 58 years, will miss her as well as their seven children: Evie May (Ted) Guay, Caroline (Richard) Martinez, Lawrence Jr. (Kitty), Mary Susan (Verl) Neider, Dennis (Joan), Elizabeth (Walt) Williams, Paul Joseph; brothers: John and Robert Mitchell; sisters: Emily Weed ,and Eleanor Mitchell; 28 grandchildren and 29 great-grandchildren.
As she runs and dances through the fields of flowers, she is fulfilling her life long desire to move freely. We will miss her, but we look forward to the time we will join hands and walk on the path throughout eternity.
Funeral services will be held Monday, April 2, 2001, 11 a.m. at the Kearns 10th and 16th Ward Building, 5025 West 4865 South, Kearns. Friends may call Sunday evening 6-8 at Redwood Memorial Estates, 6500 So Redwood Rd and one hour prior to the services at the church.
