Today I went to the funeral Service for Alice Heaton, It was a very wonderful Service and fully enoyed it, and trying to remember her back in the day's I was a teenager in kearns. She was a very patient person, a sweet Lady who loved us for who we are. I started to remember her at girls camp. She was a great leader. The Heaton family lived around the block from us and lived in the same ward. Almost 40 years ago they moved out in the Basin, and haven't seen them since.
Verdene here husband was the patriarch then and gave me my patriarticle blessing and Alice type it up.
Then I started to go to the Vernal Temple after I moved out to the Basin, and saw Verden and Alice in the Temple, It was so wonderful to see them. So I was able to catch to talk to them there for breif moments and I treasure that memory cause it is a recent memory and Alice will be missed. I saw alot of her Temple freinds there.
It was great to see their children that I grew up with, and the other girls babysat us when we were children, I remember Jerri and Ina the most. I hope we can now connect and be close. They had the greatest spirit there at the service. I felt it there. They all have love for one another. I enjoyed all their talks about their mother. I really enjoyed when the 3 women sang Because I have been given much, that is one of my favorite songs, Verdene hugs both of her sisters when they stopped singing. That was touching! I want to get to know the Heaton Family more now. What a great Family!
