She is survived by her "Children", Phyllis Purdy (David), Ogden; Clare P. Naegle (Elaine), Clearfield; and Pat Scalise (Jim), Ogden; her dear grandchildren; great-grandchildren; many loving nieces and nephews; and a vast number of dear friends. She loved her neighbors and all of the wonderful people with whom she attended church in the old 29th Ward. Her keen sense of humor and zest for life endeared her to everyone she met. Her love of children was expressed in many ways. She had a story for every occasion, and if she didn't know one, she made one up. Every Monday for years our "Cookie Lady" gave any child that knocked on her door a goodie. She and Glen enjoyed traveling. They visited nearly all fifty states, Mexico, Canada and the Holy Land. They toured Europe and South America. She was an avid reader, always reading her scriptures before reading novels or educational material. She was still writing poetry when she was 100 years old. She was a devoted member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She held many positions over the years for both the Stake and Ward. She was a natural teacher and taught everything from Primary to the Gospel Doctrine and Temple Preparation Classes. She and Glen were Temple officiators when the Ogden Temple was first opened. She did temple work there well into her nineties. The family wishes to express our heartfelt gratitude to all of the wonderful people at the Mountain Ridge Assisted Living, where she had made her home since last July. We also want to thank all of the special people from Hospice for Utah. These individuals, especially, Melissa Christensen, have given her loving comfort, advice and service. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, May 13, 2006 at 11 a.m. at Myers Mortuary Chapel in Ogden, 845 Washington Blvd. Friends and family may call on Friday from 6 to 8 p.m. and Saturday prior to the services from 9:45 to 10:45. Interment at Aultorest Memorial Park. Send condolences to family at www.myers-mortuary.com
