She also held membership positions in the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers and was past president of Utah Sorosis – a literary society. Yet LaRee’s greatest pleasure was her unlimited devotion to family and to her faith. She served tirelessly in numerous LDS Church callings including temple worker. And she enjoyed nothing more than gathering with her family – particularly at holidays or special occasions when she would prepare and cook delicious meals & treats with remarkable culinary expertise. Though she has passed from earthly concerns of illness and discomfort, LaRee’s love & shining example will linger always to lift and inspire us all – her friends & family – until we are reunited again. LaRee is preceded in death by her father and mother, Edwin and Addie Allen, and by her siblings Jay, Lee, and Nora Beth. Source: Premier [October 2011]

Betty Lou Carver-Nunley

Class of 1952. Betty Lou Boyd. Chorus, Debate, Representative Girl, Thespians, Skating Club, Fauvines, Cheerleader. She first married Ray Carver, and after his death, second married Larry Nunley. ~ ~ ~ ~ HER OBITUARY: Betty Boyd Carver Nunley, 87, passed away on April 23, 2021 in Centerfield, Utah, of causes incident to age. She was born on March 20, 1934 in San Pedro, California to Emmett Boyd and Leona McAffee Boyd. She was the youngest of three children and as a child she attended school in Lomita, California. Her family later moved to Salt Lake City, and later to Provo where she attended Brigham Young High School, graduating in the BYH Class of 1952. She then attended Brigham Young University. At BYU she was very active in cheerleading, many clubs and activities. While in college, she and a few girlfriends decided to move to Salt Lake City and work for the telephone company, sharing an apartment together. In 1955 she met and married Ray Carver, and two years later they were sealed in the Manti Temple. While living and working in Salt Lake City they became parents of three children: Jeff, Kerry and Tiffany. Her years in Salt Lake were spent raising her children while also serving in many church callings as well as PTA president in Murray. She was very talented with a special love for art, music, and decorating. She taught herself how to play the piano, and her art was so loved by neighbors and friends that they often asked her to paint murals on the walls of the living rooms in their homes, which she was always glad to do. In 1974 the family moved to Manti where they had purchased property and a home several years earlier. She was always an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in the Primary, Young Women, and the Relief Society. She always had a strong and unwavering testimony and love of the Church and its teachings. The way that she lived her life was a constant example to her family and friends. It was an example of charity, sacrifice and giving. When she and Ray had adopted special needs daughter, Tiffany, it would change the family’s life forever, but especially hers. For the remainder of her life, the Christ-like love that she shared for her daughter was beyond description. Her own interests, hobbies and dreams would be set aside as she devoted herself to make life as good as she possibly could for Tiffany, and her needs. She also served on the Primary Children’s Hospital “Festival of Trees” endowment board for 18 years, which she loved. She always tried to put God and others before herself. She also enjoyed working in the Manti Temple as a temple worker for many years. In 2005 Ray passed away and Betty was asked if she would consider serving a mission. She assumed that at her age it would be a calling to serve in Utah. Instead, she was called to work in the England, London South Mission where she served from 2006-2008. She had an enduring love for England and its people, maintaining many friendships with them for many years after returning home. Soon after returning home from her mission, she met and married Larry Nunley from Ephraim, Utah, and they shared several happy years together. They enjoyed camping as well as spending time with family and friends. Larry was a wonderful, very caring husband to Betty and he showed a lot of concern and love for Tiffany. Larry passed away unexpectedly on November 11, 2020. After his passing, Betty’s health rapidly declined. She had a special bond and love for her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, always showing much love and concern for each of them individually. Our dear mother and grandmother was an example to all of us of love, sacrifice, charity, friendship and faith. She appreciated the excitement and magic of each new day. Her life was balanced with many of life’s lessons, mostly joyful, sometimes painful. She lived a gentle, beautiful and gracious life and taught us many wonderful things. She will be sorely missed by everyone who knew her. Betty is survived by her children: Jeff (Carol) Carver, Kerry (Kim) Carver, Tiffany Carver; grandchildren: Cory Carver, Katie (Jeff) Cox, Scott Carver, Candace (Shane) Davis, and Casey (Rebecca) Carver; and 10 great-grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her parents; brother, John Boyd; sister, Geraldine Whipple; and husbands Ray and Larry. The family would like to thank the home health services that cared for Betty as well as the staff at the Mission at Community Living Center and the Gunnison Hospice. Their professional care as well as their friendship, love and compassion during the last months of Betty’s life is truly appreciated and will never be forgotten. Funeral services were held Saturday, May 8, 2021 at in the Ephraim 6th Ward Chapel. Burial was in the Manti City Cemetery. Funeral Directors: Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti.

Our loving mother, sister, grandma, and great grandma, Joyce Lorraine Cassity Weight, passed peacefully back to her Heavenly home on February 20, 2022. Joyce was born in Erda, Utah on September 13, 1934 as the fifth and final child of Edward and Arvilla Cassity. Joyce and her siblings grew up in the Tooele area, enjoying the great outdoors and artesian wells on the family property. Later in her early teens, after her mother died, Joyce went to live in the loving home of Karl and Frances Miller and their three sons, Reed, Grant, and Glen in Provo, Utah. Joyce graduated from Brigham Young High School in 1952 with honors. It was there that she met and later married Jerold "Jerry" Arthur Weight in the Salt Lake Temple (later divorced). While Joyce was pregnant with their first child, Jerry was called and served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Joyce and her little son Michael alternated living in the Miller home and in the home of her husband’s parents until Jerry’s return from his mission. The young family lived briefly in San Francisco and Oakland in the years following, after which they returned to Utah where two more sons, Paul and Jeffery were born. Then, in 1962, Joyce and the family moved to American Samoa, where Jerry worked for three years as a teacher at a church owned and sponsored high school. A daughter, Tori, was born on the island. During that time Joyce served as Relief Society President, and enjoyed a great and loving association with both American and native-born Samoan sisters in her ward. She took great pride and joy in her service there. The family returned to Utah from American Samoa in 1965, and after a short stay in Utah, moved to Burns, Oregon, where Jerry taught at the local high school for one year. The family returned to Utah a year later, and within two years purchased a permanent home in Bountiful, Utah. In 1969, a second daughter, Vickie, was added to the family, bringing the family total to 5 children. Joyce loved to travel and the family went on many vacation excursions together, traversing the county in the family station wagon.
