As a girl she attended the district school in Alpine, Al-pine, Highland and later in American Ameri-can Fork. She took pleasure In at- ltendtogAlpmejBjmdajr, school ana ouner auxiliaries or tne cnurcn. Her willing disposition made her a great help to her parents. She not only learned to do housework, but work in the fields as well. For about three years she lived and worked in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lewis of Salt Lake City.

In fact her happiest moments were in making others happy. She loved to go and did considerable work in the House of the Lord. She was a member and faithful teacher in the second ward Relief society for many years. She loved the gospel and had great faith In Its ordinances. Che has enjoyed good health until about three months ago, but her determination deter-mination to do, kept her up until the last week when she was taken to the local hospital where she answered an-swered the Father's call Monday morning, April 6, at 4:30 a. m., a faithful Latter-day Saint, beloved by all who knew her.
