She was born on August 9th, 1927 in Cannonville, Utah to John W. and Elinor R. Palmer. Her mother died when Mom was only nine and her Dad was left to raise her and six siblings. They were desperately poor and Mom often said that sometimes they didn't know where the next meal was coming from. Even with all the hardships the family endured, she still spoke fondly of the good times she had while growing up in Cannonville. She graduated from high school in Tropic, Utah, and worked for a short time at a Walgreens drug store in Salt Lake City. She married McCune C. (Mac) Ott in 1946 and together they had four children--Martin, Gary, Kristine, and Kathryn. The family lived in a number of national park areas around the Western U.S. where McCune worked for the National Park Service as a maintenance supervisor. While working at Lake Mead National Recreation area in 1965, McCune succumbed to a heart attack and, at age 38, with few job skills and only a high school education, Mom became the head of a house- hold that came complete with a mortgage and three school-aged children left to raise. Her depression-era upbringing had prepared her to cope with life's challenges in other ways, however. She had a keen intellect, well-honed survival instincts, a fierce determination to succeed, and a work ethic that was second to none. And, maybe most importantly, she saw and had great appreciation for the comedy in life. She moved the family from Boulder City, Nevada, to Cedar City, Utah and found employment at the old Woolworth's store. Subsequently, she worked at J.C. Penny and then, after attending classes at Southern Utah University to learn office skills, she was hired as an administrative clerk at Cedar Breaks National Monument. Later, she transferred to Bryce Canyon National Park, and finally to Zion National Park where she retired in 1989. That same year, after being alone for almost twenty four years, she married an old childhood friend, Raymond DeVar Pollock of Tropic Utah and between them they have seven children, 19 grandchildren, and 24 great-grandchildren; the latest, Isaac Cole Chamberlain, born on his great grandmother's birthday, August 9. Mom on many occasions said that she felt her greatest legacy was her family: "not a bad one in the bunch." All of her grandchildren have stories of adventures with Grandma. One summer she took three of her pre-teenaged grandsons on a camping trip to Yellowstone.
