She has been able to attend the weddings of all seven of her grandchildren in the Manti Temple
She loved to dance, beginning when she was six years old and continuing throughout her life, trying to teach her children, grandchildren and even great-grandchildren a few dance steps.
Mom had a very artistic eye and could decorate anywhere or anything. She loved to celebrate all holidays and other events with her decorations. When she moved to Salt Lake City in 1968 her talent got her a job with the downtown Sears Store doing the displays on the floor and in the windows. She received awards and recognitions from them for her originality and ideas.
After living in Salt Lake for 10 years she returned to Richfield and continued her display work in a few Richfield stores and in her home. She had decorations in her home for every month and loved making her home festive.
Mom is survived by her daughters and son: Patricia (Dean) Meacham, Glenwood; Terry (Sharon) Anderson, West Valley City; and Jolayne (Don) Okerlund, Salina; seven grandchildren, Cole, Ted, Lana, Jason, Justin, Marlo, and Tyler and 23 great-grandchildren; sisters, Shirley (Harry Graves), Jeri Ward, Meridian, Idaho; brother, Marvin (Vera) Salisbury.
