Our beloved Mari L. “Snoopy” Millward Walk passed away on Saturday, Jan. 21, 2017, at her home in Laurel, Montana, in the loving arms of her husband after a courageous and valiant battle with cancer.

Snoopy was born June 21, 1955, to Lynn and Kathleen Millward in Grantsville, Utah, where she grew up with six siblings: Connie, Randy, Cheryl, Denny, Glenn and Kaye (KJ). She lived most of her life in Grantsville where she raised three children: Mindi, Clint and Colby. Snoopy was a devoted grandmother to eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. Snoopy met the love of her life, Tracy Walk, in 1995 in Grantsville and they were inseparable from that point on. They got married March 17, 2008, and their undying love continues to this day.

Snoopy was an avid pool player and won many trophies over a 30-year span. She loved football and was a huge fan of the BYU Cougars and the Washington Redskins. Tracy convinced her to take her first airplane ride to watch the Cougars in the fall of 2016, a trip they both thoroughly enjoyed! Snoopy adored her cats and treated them as if they were her children, always making sure there was a supply of fresh ground lamb just for them.

Snoopy’s love of life was unshakable. She always had a smile on her face, even on her hardest days. She loved everyone she met and was so happy to be host to friends and family. She had a fun and crazy sense of humor and never stressed the tough stuff. Snoopy was pure of heart; like a little kid in an adult body, every day was a new adventure and met with a smile. Snoopy — you will be forever loved and truly missed.

Snoopy is survived by her husband Tracy, her siblings, children and grandchildren. There will be a celebration of Snoopy’s life in Grantsville, Utah, in the spring of 2017 with information following later. At this time, the family would like to express profound gratitude to Compassus Hospice in Billings, Montana, and most especially to her personal hospice nurse, Samantha.

Hiromi Mark Clark Imai (Hiko), aged 72, passed away Jan. 26, 2017, at the Ashley Valley Medical Center in Vernal, Utah. Mark was born to George N. and Lucy K. Imai on Sept. 29, 1944 in Havre, Montana. He spent most of his life in Tooele, Utah, and was active in the swim programs there.

He served faithfully as a UHSAA swimming official for many years, and helped coach the Uintah High School swimming/diving team from 1996-2000. He served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. Mark was an avid marksman, and loved everything including the history of firearms. Mark was also a fisherman, always looking for ways to improve his skills and explore new places. Mark had an extraordinary gift in the kitchen as well. He was an aficionado of great food, and those that knew him and were lucky to experience his wonderful skill in the kitchen will never forget his passion for how food could make you happy and bring families together. Mark had quite the green thumb too by enjoying his time in the yard. His handiwork perhaps was most notable by keeping the grounds of his home in Vernal so beautiful with that special “Japanese Gardener” touch.

He is survived by his wife, Kathy Worthen; son, Kane’ (Oana); daughter, Arwen (Ken); grandchildren Elora and Maddox, both of whom he adored. Sisters and brother, Carole Imai, Ellen Mukai, Ren Imai (Janet) and sister-in-law Sue Eareckson. He is proceeded in death by his parents, George and Lucy and older brother Toshio.

Alfred James (Jim) Stever, 86, passed away on Jan. 30, 2017 ,of causes related to Alzheimer’s. Born in Detroit, Michigan, he was the son of Russell and Cora (Patchet) Stever, brother to Donald, Betty and Marilyn, all of whom have already passed. He graduated from McKenzie High School in Detroit and joined the Michigan National Guard at 18. At 22, he joined the United States Air Force and served his country for 21 years. He was primarily in “communications” and helped open many corners of the world, including Antarctica. He was raised Methodist and joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in 1973. He loved camping and traveling and throughout his military service, with every move we made, he made it an adventure getting there. Once he retired from the military, he dove into the HVAC business. His organizational skills and knack for the trade allowed him to open his own business, “Jim’s Service Center” in Tooele and he took care of the townfolk for nearly 30 years. He also loved to golf! He just enjoyed hitting that ball! Never quite mastered the sport, but he did get a “hole in one” at the Oquirrh Hills Golf Course. It is widely agreed karma granted the noteworthy event just to spite his often golf partner, John L. Hansen. What a grand day that was! Jim was also predeceased by his wife of 53 years, Nola Jean (Hansen) Stever. They were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple in 2004. He tended to her so tenderly in her later years. Again, his organizational skills helped make sure she had the very best care available. What an amazing team they made. Jim is survived by four children, Michael (Dorene) Stever of Penrose, Utah, Dennis (Rita) Stever of Erda, Utah, Cyndie (Tom) Olsen of Leander, Texas, and Richard (Barb) Stever of Prospect, Oregon. He is also survived by nine grandchildren and six great-grandchildren, but there are more who love him dearly. He had a huge hand in how they have all grown into amazing people. Alzheimer’s and dementia are causes that we encourage all of you to support however and whenever you can. A funeral service for Jim will be Friday, Feb. 3, 2 p.m. at Tate Mortuary, 110 S. Main Street in Tooele, with a viewing one hour prior to the service.

Our dear beloved daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, aunt and friend passed away peacefully on Monday, Jan. 30, 2017, surrounded by her family.

Sandra is the oldest child of Tom and the late Karen Egelund. She was born May 14, 1959. She moved with her family to Erda, Utah, as a young girl. Because of this move, she attended and graduated from Tooele High School, where she was fortunate to meet her devoted husband of over 40 years, Rex Quarnberg. They were married and later sealed in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. She supported Rex as he attended trade school to become an electrician, and they were a great team owning and operating the Tack Shack Boot Repair on Vine Street for several years. While still living in Tooele, Sandra was blessed to have three beautiful children, Amanda, Kelsie and Andrew.

Eventually, employment took Rex and Sandra to Harrisville where Sandra was able to have many great friends. As her children grew older, Sandra began working in the lunchrooms at Farr West Elementary and Weber High School. She was also the Child Nutrition Manager at Bates Elementary for nearly eight years.

Sandra enjoyed camping with her family and she spent many days whitewater rafting on the Snake River, and enjoying the sand dunes. These were great opportunities for her to spend time with her friends, and with her family. Sandra was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and held several callings throughout her life. She was blessed to be able to support two of her children as they served full-time missions for the LDS Church.

Lyndon A Mair…that’s me! The “A” stood for Alexander but my mom thought that putting all of the words together would make too long of a name so all I ended up with was A! No italics, no period, just A. As you can imagine, friends and not-so-good friends didn’t hesitate to fill in the blanks.

Born: Nov. 14, 1945, to Edna and Lindsay Mair in Heber City, Utah. I served an LDS mission to Scotland where I was able to serve my God and church for two glorious years. I married my sweetheart, Linda Joyce Mair, on April 17, 1970 and we were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on Aug. 6, 1974. She was my joy, happiness (and royal pain) for 47 years and I will miss her dearly. My Father called me home (much to everyone’s surprise including myself) on Jan. 30, 2017. Health issues kept me from completing everything in my bucket list but together, my wife and I were able to see more things and go more places with friends and family than one has a right to. (My motto in life? “Someone has to do it.”)

My greatest accomplishment was the birth of my four children, Shane Mair (Katie), Tammy Bedford (Brian), Brock (lots of stuffed animal friends) and Jarom Mair (Emily). In addition, there were 11 grandchildren (almost a complete football team) with nine boys and two beautiful young women. Barbara Belcher (sister) remains here on earth while I reunite with Mom, Dad, Arvella (sister), Juanita (sister) and Darwin (brother).

As a family, we loved camping, fishing, boating, being Jordanelle camp hosts and cruising the Caribbean. I enjoyed creating original designs such as jewelry, glass mosaics and crocheting lawn chairs. Life here was wonderful…always full of fun, laughter and love.

Before I am laid to rest, you are invited to visit with me one last time, Saturday, Feb. 4, 2017, at the Village Boulevard Chapel, 390 E. Village Blvd., Stansbury Park, Utah, from 10-11:30 a.m. (viewing), noon for service and my favorite part, luncheon for those who have traveled far and close friends or family.

Life is good but GOD is great! Stay close to the latter and the former will continue to be true. (L Mair 2010)

All my love,

Lynn (1945-2017)
