Note all the girls are wearing something over their shoulders.  President Spencer W. Kimball made a statement about modest clothing. It was given the name "Kimbalized Clothing." And  not one of us is wearing a strapless formal.

1964This was the New York World Fair; Washington DC trip organized by John Harmer who was our seminary teacher the preceding school year. It was either the summer of 1964 orsummer of 1965. Pretty confident it was 1964. As Hoover High School students, we were able to meet J. Edgar Hoover of FBI fame at the FBI building in DC because the people at the FBI thought Hoover High was named after him. Actually, as we all know, Hoover High named after President Herbert Hoover.

Bryan Pettit and Kent Gardiner go to an explorer conference at BYU.  To do this Bryan and I travel with Bryan's father in a Ford Falcon, which is really uncomfortable all the way to Provo.  I was stuck in the back with no leg room.  At the conference one thing I remember was that is is more manly to cross your legs with one leg straight out and the other ankle sitting perpendicular across the top of your thigh.   We had a great time and made friends.

Baker Wakumoto, Carolyn 
When Carolyn and I were Sophomores we got invited to the Hoover senior prom. We double dated. I went with Vince Hearn  and she went with Bob Dobson. After the dance we were driving to the Islander in L.A. Carolyn was wearing a beautiful blue strapless dress. So Vince stopped suddenly and Carolyn launched over the front seat from the middle seat. Which I guess was too much for the dress because the dress ripped and she had to hold on to it through dinner. Their date went downhill from there because he crawled into the back of the station wagon. Which ended in them not speaking the rest of the ride home. 

We went to the Rose Parade and goofed off all night and slept through the parade . We had many good times. Lots of Chinese fire drills....trips to Bob's and dragging Hollywood Blvd. We were friend from Toll to being roomies at BYU. G9od times...oh at BYU we got blamed for a riot.....which may or may not be true....!!

My first friend was Carolyn Baker, and Cheryl Finney. Susan Peters. I was taught the gospel by the Blair's...they were an older couple who lived in the ward. I was first brought to primary by Susan Peters...later to MIA by Carolyn in 7th grade.  We had cooking and I sat at the same table with Carolyn and Cheryl Finney. In junior high school at Toll Jr. high all my friends were LDS. And we remained   friends thru high school and BYU and even now in our granny days. They are wonderful people and I adore them all. Cheryl Cornwell Scott

Note:  Parents were life long members . They live in General, Utah. Br. Baker owned a business not sure what in Glendale but in Rancho Cucamonga  He owned a couple  of yogurt shops. Carolyn managed one with her sister Colleen. Carolyn had two sisters (Colleen and Judy and a brother John.)

As a grandmother to 15 (with another one due in July), Carolyn’s grandchildren meant everything to her. She could relate to each one, no matter their age, and they all knew she loved them.  For Christmas, she would give each grandchild a special invitation inviting them to “Grandma Week” where they all came to her house for activities and fun. They slept in a tent, cooked hot dogs over a campfire, played games, went on outings, read stories, and watched movies. This is something I definitely want to do with my grandchildren in her memory.

Carolyn Wakumoto is a modern day miracle. Two years ago, Carolyn was diagnosed with Stage IV Gall Bladder Cancer, a rare form of cancer that has no proven treatment and only a six month survival rate after diagnosis. But this wife, mother of four, and grandmother of 15 refused to let the cancer win. She became her own best advocate by seeking out information on-line, obtaining treatment at the City of Hope in Duarte, California, and never giving up. While she went ahead with the standard, routine treatment utilizing chemotherapy (“poison” according to Carolyn), she also actively sought out less conventional methods to supplement the chemo. On the Internet, Carolyn came across two valuable resources. The first was the Budwig Diet, an “approach that teaches how to destroy as many cancer cells as possible in the shortest time possible.” The second, and perhaps most valuable, was the book, Cancer Free- Your Guide to Gentle, Non-Toxic Healing by Bill Henderson.

Thinking of my Mom and Dad on their Anniversary. They were married 6/1/1945. Dad was 27 and a Flight Officer in the Army Aircorp. Mom was 20. Dad passed away 3/4/2002, and Mom 1/14/2015. Miss them both. Aren't they a darling couple?

Salt Lake Temple:

This picture was taken during our celebration of my parents' 50th anniversary in 1995. They were married in the SL Temple and we thought it would be appropriate to attend the same Temple, as a family, on their 50th anniversary. Mom and Dad were the witness couple in the session. Left - Right  - Dennis, Lesley, Alvin, Evelyn, Michele, Andrea, Rodger.
My sweet mom, Evelyn Barlow, passed away in her sleep, at the age of 90, in Salt Lake City, UT on January 14, 2015. There is no obituary yet. We are working on that right now, and will send a link ASAP.

She was remarkable! Great cook, amazing writer and poet, terrific with organizing and giving parties at her home and at church. She made friends everywhere she went. She was always trying to make things better for others and often took youth and young single adults into her home when they were away from home, even having some live with us. They are still considered family to us. In an effort to help the residents of her assisted living facility feel more involved in the Sunday services, she strongly suggested to the branch presidency that they have a guest chorister (from among the residents) for Sacrament meetings at least once a month, instead of having everything done for them. The Branch presidency put her suggestion into place and she had the opportunity of being the first guest chorister before she passed away. She always wanted to serve, and, as you see, found ways to do that. The Gospel of Jesus Christ was always very important to her. She instilled that in her children and everyone she came in contact with.

Til we meet again, George & Mom.

Hong Kong Riots with Dennis running:

Hong Kong riots with Dennis running - Dennis is in front looking back to his companion. To give you a little background on this one, too; There was much anger in Hong Kong at that time against the British, so anyone with light skin was considered the enemy. Denny said he and his companion were walking down the street one day when a Chinese man walk passed them and warned them that they better get out of there. As they began to walk faster, everyone from all the high rise tenements came streaming down into the street and began punching them and hitting them with whatever they could find. Denny had his arm broken by someone wielding a 2x4. As soon as they extricated themselves from the mob they started running to the end of the street where they saw barricades and the police. The mob chased them. After this the Church transferred most of the missionaries to other missions, and Dennis was sent to the Alaskan-Canadian Mission.  His first area was Anchorage where they immediately had a flood and everyone in their building had to stay up on higher floors and the roof. My mom's boss at the time, who wasn't a member, said, "This is a MISSION? It sounds more like an obstacle course!"

Burbank City Attorney Dennis Barlow Retires


An end of an era at Burbank City Hall, as City Attorney (and Mormon Bishop) Dennis Barlow retired officially last week.  A large crowd, we're told, bade him farewell at Castaway Restaurant.  Barlow was accompanied by his ten kids and twenty grandkids.

We're well aware of the sometime controversial attitude toward Barlow expressed on other blogs in town.  What do you think?  Is his retirement a net positive for our City, or will our City soon regret the loss.

She used her nursing training as an office nurse to a pediatrician and as member of the nursing staff at several hospitals in California and Utah. Her friends and relatives often called on her knowledge and research skills for information about symptoms and medications.

Brown and Zina Young Card Brown, in the Salt Lake LDS Temple on February 7, 1944 and moved with him to Jackson Heights, New York, where he was copilot with American Airlines.

In 1995-96 she was the Dean of the Southern Utah Chapter of the AGO, which organization she served in other capacities for several years. Grace was a church musician for more that seventy years, serving as organist, chorister, and music chairman at both the ward and stake levels. She also gave many free organ and piano lessons to aspiring church pianists and organists. Her additional church service included" Ward Relief Society President; Relief Society teacher; Branch YWMIA president in Germany; and as a worker in the St. George LDS Temple. Since moving to St. George in 1985 Grace has presented many well-received programs in the St. George Tabernacle, as well as similar programs at Church, elsewhere in the community, and in her home.

Callister, Reed and Norinne (daughter of LeGrand Richards)


1960:  

Paula Callister is referred to in Conference talk by her grandfather, LeGrand Richards, “What After Death?,” Ensign, Nov 1974, page 52 
Then I think of our little granddaughter who died at the same age; her father and mother are here today and her brothers and sisters. After just a few days of sickness, she passed away at the age of 16, a beautiful little woman. To think that God’s plan would not ultimately bring to her everything our other children received who tarried here in mortality would lessen my appreciation of my Father in heaven and the perfectness of his plan.

St. George, UT-Gary Park Eldredge, age 69, passed away peacefully on March 17, 2015, at his home in St. George, due to the effects of cancer. Gary and his wife Tina had recently moved to St. George after 42 years in the Chicago area.
Gary was born on August 11, 1945, in Salt Lake City, to David Arthur Eldredge and Margaret Ruth Midgley.
He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Christine Ann "Tina" Wickman; their four children Crystal (David) Barlow, Todd (Janell Wilson), Amy (Steve) Foxhall, and Jason (Katie Quillen); and 13 grandchildren. He is also survived by his brother David Arthur Eldredge, Jr. (Mary Collier), and sister Paula (Jan) Woellhaf.
Gary attended Brigham Young University, graduating magna cum laude in 1971 with a combined Bachelor of Science and Master of Engineering Degree. While attending BYU he met his sweetheart, Tina, and they married in the Los Angeles Temple on September 10, 1968. Following his graduation from college, Gary served as a lieutenant in the US Army Reserves. He began his 35-year career in research and development with Bell laboratories/AT&T/Alcatel-Lucent in 1972, which took the couple to Naperville, IL, where they lived and raised their children. Gary worked in software development and as a director of cell phone technology development in his last years with the company. He often marveled that when his group developed the feature for telephone texting they didn't think any of the phone companies would see any use for it.
Gary was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints throughout his life. He served a 2-year mission to Buenos Aires, Argentina, and was able to use the Spanish fluency he gained there in Church service throughout his life. He served in two bishoprics, as a member of the high council, stake financial secretary and stake Family History coordinator. He served as a counselor in the Chicago Temple Presidency and Tina served as Assistant to the Matron from 2007 to 2010. They have been long-time temple ordinance workers. Gary also served for a short time as a sealer in the St. George Temple.
From an early age Gary developed a love of family history. He often joked that he lost track of how many relatives he had submitted for temple ordinances after the first 10,000. He used his passion and knowledge of genealogy to help countless friends and ward members. He also filled a two-year Church service mission answering the LDS Family History Center's help line. He had a love of home teaching and served many families faithfully throughout the years.

Williams, Ozzie 

Ozzie was born on May 7, 1942 to Osmyn and Gertrude Williams.  He was their 3rd child and their only boy, so he was very special to them.  He grew up in Glendale, California.  As a young boy he enjoyed Scouting, fishing, swimming, and teasing his sisters unmercifully!  He received his Duty to God Award in Scouting. Ozzie’s best friend was Mike Doyle, and they spent so much time together that Mike became my second brother.

He served a full time mission in the Central States Mission and loved missionary work.  After returning from his mission, he met and married Karen Loretta Bobchalk from La Crescenta. Ozzie and Karen got permission to be married in the Glendale West Ward Chapel on April 11, 1964 (so her mother could be there), and immediately went to the Los Angeles Temple that same day and were sealed for time and eternity.  There was a reception later that evening at the West Ward.

Ozzie and Karen had 7 children--3 girls and 4 boys.  While they were in Southern California, they ran 2 of the Ettie Lee Homes for Boys who were classified as “incorrigibles”.  They had 8 boys living in a home with them when they had their first 2 children, and later were asked to run a ranch home with 22 boys .  After many experiences, they “retired” from doing this, and moved to Las Vegas.  In Las Vegas, Ozzie worked for Clark County.  He ran a facility called Child Haven which was for Neglected and Abandoned children.

They later moved to Moreno Valley, California where he worked for Deseret Industries.  He was a store manager there.  Ozzie was also the Bishop of his ward.

After the death of our Dad in 1988, they all moved to Farmington, Utah to help our mother.  He continued to work for Deseret Industries on Welfare Square and in Layton and was the Rehabilitation Coordinator for them.

In 1989, Ozzie’s beautiful wife, Karen, died very suddenly of heart failure at the age of 45 years, and left him with 7 children.  It was devastating for Ozzie, but he continued to move forward.  Several months after Karen’s passing, Ozzie married Cathy Carroll from Las Vegas who he had worked with at Child Haven in Las Vegas.  Karen had always told him that if anything ever happened to her, she want him to marry Cathy.  Karen loved Cathy very much and they were very dear friends.  Oz and Cathy were married on November 11, 1989 in the Jordan River Temple.  Cathy had a son who Ozzie adopted and was later sealed to both of them.  Oz and Cathy moved from Farmington to Layton and later Ogden, Utah.

Ozzie and Cathy were famous for bringing “strays” into their home . . . Dog or human all the time.  Their one daughter, Heather said they were never quite sure if they were staying for dinner or staying the night!

Oz had a heart of gold and helped a tremendous amount of people along the way and to help them find their way.  His life was a life of selfless service.  He was truly a disciple of Christ.

Oz was an avid fisherman!  He loved to fish!  He fished with all his boys often.  His son, Jared remembers ice fishing with his Dad on Brigham Pond, and Jared only had on shorts, scandals and a short sleeve shirt.  Ozzie started throwing snowballs at him!!  No matter how cold it was, they always ended their fishing trips by going to the Peach Tree Drive-in after for a milkshake!

He was a wonderful father and so dearly loved by all of his children.  His daughter, Jenny said that “Growing up, I have always remembered my Dad with a little bit of a belly (no offense Dad).  I always loved that belly!!!  Whenever we would watch movies as a family, my Dad’s belly became my “pillow” till I turned 9 or 10 years old!”

Ozzie was diagnosed with metastasized melanoma in February 2010 (just one month after my  husband, Paul passed away).  There was a lump behind his ear and that’s what it was.  There was nothing they could do but keep him comfortable.  He was in terrible pain for months and did go through some radiation to try to slow it down.  After the first day of radiation, his wife Cathy shared a story . . . “Oz did feel well enough to go fishing again with Jared, even though it was pouring rain and freezing cold outside.  I guess you can’t stop a man from doing what he loved to do!  After Oz came home, I bundled him up under 3 blankets and he had a good sleep!”

Oz passed away November 28, 2010 surrounded by his loving family.  He has left a legacy of a life of service and a devotion to our Savior.

2010

My good buddy and best friend Ozzie Williams passed away this morning at 11:10 am at his home in Ogden.  I was able to see Ozzie yesterday.  He was in a semi-conscious state from all the meds and pain relievers, but did roll his eyes when I told him who I was.  His is survived only by his younger sister Sue, who lost her husband recently.  The Williams family were long time members of the Glendale West Ward.  Ozzie left from the Glendale West Ward to serve in the Central States Mission in the fall of 1961.  Of course, he was a graduate of the great High School, HOOVER class of 60.  Ozzie ran track and cross-country for the Tornandoes.  I'm gonna miss him.  Mike Doyle


General authorities:
     Michael Hancock
     Lance Wickman
     Douglas L. Callister
     Tad R. Callister

I just grew up thinking most wards had children and/or grand children of general authorities living within their boundaries.  Charle's father was Hugh B. Brown and Norine Callister was the daughter of LeGrand Richards.  So it was not unusual to see one or the other once or twice a year. KDF
