Obit Dorrice A. WallisThe children of Dorrice A. Wallis of Grantsville, Utah, announce with great sorrow her death on Nov. 25, 2016. Dorrice was born March 20, 1920, in Trumansburg, New York. She studied music at Ithaca College, graduating in 1941, where she also met her future husband. She married Robert Neale Wallis (deceased) June 16, 1941, and subsequently raised six children while maintaining a long career as a music educator.  After her first three children were born, Dorrice, Bob and the kids embarked on a three-year-long adventure touring across the United States in a travel trailer.  Many stories and photographs endure from this period of their life. After the birth of their fourth child, they decided it was time to settle down in one place. They spent a brief period back in the northeast, but eventually moved permanently to central Florida, living in Clermont, Groveland, Orlando and Leesburg. Two more children were born while residing in Groveland. Dorrice enjoyed an illustrious and successful career as a music educator throughout her various positions in Lake County. At one time she was simultaneously the elementary music teacher, the high school choral director AND the high school band director in Groveland (not to mention many years as a church organist)! She completed her teaching career at Leesburg Senior High School, retiring in 1982.  In her many years at Groveland and Leesburg high schools, her choruses and soloists earned many Superior ratings at the Florida Vocal Association Concert Festivals. She left a legacy of thousands of students who developed a love of music through her teaching and example, in some cases following in her footsteps. At this point she and Bob got the travel bug again, sold their home, bought another travel trailer and spent about seven years touring the country, visiting children and grandchildren and building more precious memories before returning to Florida. After Bob’s death in 1992, Dorrice became very active in church life and music.  She became the staff pianist at Seven Rivers Presbyterian Church in Lecanto, Florida, where she served for about 15 years. She joined her son David and his wife Bonnie in Grantsville in 2011, where she discovered the First Baptist Church and a musical home once again. Survivors are her daughters Helene, Kathleen, Roberta and Marianne and sons David and William. Also surviving are numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Arrangements are by Dalton-Hoopes Funeral Home in Grantsville. Condolences can be expressed at www.daltonhoopes.com.

Obit Albert Klar Ogden 1PROTONS! NEUTRONS! ELECTRONS! Albert (Bert) Klar Ogden departed this earthly life on Sunday, Nov. 27, 2016, due to a combination of colon cancer, dementia, and age related debilitations. Obit Albert Klar Ogden 2As sad as that day was, it was preceded by a slow decline in his memory and mental abilities and a loss of physical abilities. He mourned the mental and physical losses as they slowly slipped away. He loved life and fought hard to the very end. Bert was born in Tooele, Utah on April 9, 1932, to Klar Ogden and Helen Lee Ogden. His beloved mother, Helen, died when Bert was only 17 years old, a loss he felt deeply all his life. Later, Norlyne St. Clair married his father and became a loving and admired stepmother to Bert and his younger brother, Robert (Bob) Lee Ogden. Albert enjoyed his youth being with his many aunts and uncles, his grandparents in Richfield, at his grandfather’s cabin on the shores of Fish Lake and with his friends and family in Tooele. He graduated from Tooele High School, attended Utah State University and enlisted in the United States Navy. He served on the USS Montrose. After his honorable discharge from the Navy and with the assistance of the GI Bill, he attended the University of Utah and discovered his love of learning and teaching. He truly loved teaching. He liked preparing and giving a lecture — to him, it was a performance. It was important to gain the full attention of the student and then impart some knowledge (“Protons! Neutrons! Electrons!” and all served with a stick dipped in water and the water flung about). He taught high school in Malad, Idaho and junior high in Moab, Utah, as well as at Glendale Junior High in Salt Lake City, Utah and finally Tooele Junior High in Tooele, Utah. He was also a reserve police officer in the Tooele Police Department and a member of the Tooele County Sheriff’s Citizen’s Patrol. Bert was married to Lynda Williams and they had five sons; they later divorced. After their divorce, Bert remained single for many years, but continued to be a colorful teacher and presence in Tooele. In June of 1985 he met a woman at the Sojourner Private Club and asked her to dance. They danced together the rest of the evening and the rest of his life. Bert and Linda Bailey Purcell were married in Las Vegas, Nevada on Nov. 29, 1994. Bert was enthusiastic about camping, fishing, sailing on the Great Salt Lake and exploring all of the State of Utah. He was an avid student of history, geography, and geology. He was a member of both the Elks and Eagles in Tooele. He was a “card-carrying” member of the ACLU and various environmental and animal welfare organizations. After moving to Stansbury Park, Bert became a member of the Stansbury Park Service Agency and was in charge of the water. He wrote the water policy with respect to Stansbury Lake and the lakes in the golf course. He loved living on the lake and was happy to share the beautiful view with anyone and everyone. He is survived by his wife, Linda; brother, Bob (Susan) of Sandy, Utah; sons Kenneth of Apache Junction, Arizona, Alan (Kim) of Stansbury Park, Utah, Darrell of Salmon, Idaho and Gregory (Julie) of Sandy, Utah; eight grandchildren, five great-grandchildren and several dogs and cats. He was preceded in death by his parents, stepmother Norlyne, son Lonnie and many loved aunts and uncles. Special thanks are extended to Ken Ogden, Cameron Dortch, P.A., Jackie and Barb of Harmony Hospice and Penzi of Home Instead and the University of Utah Pharmacy at Stansbury for their extra love and care. Bert loved a party. So his last party will be a celebration of his life on Sunday, Dec. 11, 2016, between 5-7 p.m. at the Stansbury Clubhouse in Stansbury Park, Utah. Please come. Bring your stories, memories and help celebrate this extraordinary man. In lieu of flowers the family requests that you do something life-affirming: adopt an animal, take a child fishing, dance with the partner in your life or donate your time or money to a cause that is dear to you. If you need a hint, please donate to the Utah Humane Society or the Nature Conservancy of Utah.

Obit Georgia Louise ThompsonGeorgia Louise Thompson passed away with her children by her side at her home Saturday, Dec. 3, 2016, after a courageous battle with lung cancer. Georgia was born Sept. 25, 1930, in Denver, Colorado, to Norval and Josephine Russo Thompson. She grew up in Denver and Leadville, Colorado.  She attended Colorado State University and graduated with degrees in history and psychology. During her time at the University she was active in her sorority and was voted “The Sweetheart of the Sigma Chi Fraternity.” In June of 1954, Georgia married her high school sweetheart, Myron Wood Thompson just a few days after Myron graduated from veterinary school.

Hammerquist and opening the Buhl Animal Clinic, which was the center of their lives for almost 50 years. Georgia was a true animal lover and spent a lot of time on farm calls with Myron, helping to care for all kinds of sick and injured animals. She was the cheerful and helpful voice answering the business phone and assisting pet owners in need of Myron’s healing hands. She lived an active lifestyle and enjoyed snow skiing, water skiing, golf, travel and attending sporting events. She never missed an opportunity to watch her kids in any school or community activities in which they participated. Georgia was a strong, intelligent, resourceful woman who was an extraordinary cook and homemaker. Some of the fondest memories her grandchildren have of her are the great foods she prepared for them in her kitchen. She also will be remembered for her quick wit and boundless sense of humor that remained with her even through the final days of her life. After the death of her husband, Georgia moved to Stansbury Park, Utah, to be closer to her children and grandchildren. She quickly came to love the area with the views of the mountains and the Great Salt Lake, which she frequently referred to as her “ocean view.” In this community she formed enduring friendships with her neighbors Bonnie, Kathy and Cory, whom she grew to love deeply. Thank you ladies for always being there for her. Heaven has gained another angel and is rejoicing in her return. It’s comforting to know she is now reunited with her husband, parents, beloved sister and all the animals she loved in her lifetime.
