Thelma was a great example of service her whole life. As a cancer survivor, she volunteered to help cancer survivors through the Cancer Society and received accolades from the Governor of Utah. She loved serving her family, and faithfully served in many callings in the wards in which she resided for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She served a mission with her husband, Arthur, in Scotland. Thelma was also a wonderful example of motherhood.

Thelma’s love of music was evident by all the songs that were sung around the extended family campfires at Bear Lake. She was able to weave the songs into teaching moments with her grandchildren, as they sat on her lap with her loving arms around them. For over 30 years she sang in a trio with her close friends entertaining many. Thelma loved, loved BYU sports and was an avid fan, kind of NEXT level!! She also played competition softball throughout the state as a young woman.

Thelma was always mindful of those in need and she really was preparing herself, all of her life, to meet Him who will bring peace and love as we all, on bended knee, confess that He is THE CHRIST!

Thelma is survived by her children: Maureen, Brenda, Lisa and Randy as well as two sisters, Aloma and Dixie. She was blessed with 24 grandchildren and 84 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Arthur, and her youngest child, Darin and 2 great grandchildren.
