Alisha Wright NORDIC VALLEY Alisha Wright, 20, returned home to her Heavenly Father on November 13, 2003 from causes due to a Alisha Wright tragic car accident. She was born in Ogden, Utah on May 22, 1983, the daughter of Kenny and Debbie De Boer Wright. She attended Weber High School where she was a Junior and Senior Class Officer. She graduated in 2001 with a perfect 4.0 GPA. She was accepted into the nursing program at Weber State University and graduated as an RN in May 2003. Alisha was currently seeking her Bachelor’s degree in nursing, and working at LDS Hospital in the Newborn ICU.

Alisha was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, serving as a primary worker and visiting teacher. She received her Young Womanhood Medallion, and had a strong testimony of Jesus Christ and the Plan of Happiness. She was very talented in all areas of her life and mastered everything she did.

Alisha was a very happy person who understood the meaning of life and always had a smile on her face. She loved her friends, her primary children, the babies at the hospital, and, most of all, she loved her family.

Bailey COUNCILMEN cont. from page 1 OGDEN - Von “Duck” Eldon Bailey, 54, died Monday, November 24, 2003, at his home from complications of a lung illness. He was born August 12, 1949 in Ogden, the second child of Halvor Roosevelt and Lucille Bradberry Bailey. Duck was raised and educated in Huntsville, Utah, graduating from Weber High School in 1967. He married VaLee Rasmussen on November 20, 1976 in Huntsville. The couple moved to Beatty, Nevada, but returned to Ogden shortly thereafter. He had lived in the Ogden area since 1978. Duck was employed with the Weber County Sheriff’s Office as a corrections officer for 25 years. He helped initiate the means so much to us. I am honest, genuine, and hardworking, and devoted to taking to heart the best interests of Huntville’s citizens. As my job takes me from small town main street to the offices of CEO’s of large corporations, I feel that I am skilled in listening and dealing with people from all walks of life. I am also dedicated to using my skills to make sound decisions that will benefit this town that I love and respect. I am committed to preserving the things that make Huntsville such a unique place to live and raise a family. I believe our small town values, incredible sense of community, and scenic beauty set Huntsville apart, and I will work hard to ensure that these aspects of our exceptional town are preserved. It is inspiring to see the strong traditions of families such as the Layton’s, Ahlstrom’s, McKay’s, Johnson’s, and Wangsgaard’s, who have loved and believed in their town for generations. It is my hope that, one day, the Truett family will hold a similar place in the history of the town of Huntsville. Councilman Christopher Stevenson Christopher W.
