August 30, 1998THREE FORKS, MT--Our dad, (Harrison) Leo Woodbury, 75, died peacefully Thursday, August 27, 1998, after a short struggle with cancer. Leo was born on September 8, 1922 in Granger, Utah to Harrison Bray and Esther Venelia (Larsen) Woodbury, where he attended area schools and worked on the family farm.
Leo grew up with a love for the outdoors and the culture of the West. He joined the Navy in 1942 and served in the Pacific during World War II until his discharge in 1946. He worked at several occupations after the military, owning a service station for a time and working heavy construction around the western United States. However, his heart was in agriculture. He owned several wheat farms during his lifetime. He and his partners would farm in the summers and work construction during the winters.
On March 20, 1959, he married (Ida) Mae Davis Holmberg and gained a family. The family moved to their new farm (the "Hard Bar O") located in the Milligan Canyon area west of Three Forks, Montana, where Leo made his living for the next 34 years. He and Mae divorced in 1972 but remained lifelong friends as they continued to raise their family together. Leo moved to Bozeman for several years and farmed by commuting before moving to Red Lodge in 1995 to be closer to family. For the past two years he split his time between Red Lodge and his home in Mesquite, Nevada.
Leo enjoyed various activities throughout his life. Fishing was a favorite pastime; he fished the rivers and streams of Montana and eventually traveled to Alaska and Mexico to try deep-sea fishing. Game hunting led to target shooting and reloading. Winters were spent skiing at Bridger Bowl and soaking at Bozeman Hot Springs. In his later years, as his work life slowed down, he took up the game of golf. He took great pleasure in perfecting his game. After moving to Red Lodge, he became a regular at the dances around the Billings area. The common denominator in all Leo's pursuits was his friends; any activity he could share with friends was wonderful. His children and grandchildren were the icing on the cake for Leo. He enjoyed following their sporting activities, keeping track of their achievements and just watching them grow. His favorite activity of all was spoiling his grandchildren.
Leo is survived by his children, Sandy Holmberg (Ken) Bailey and Shawna (Ray) Halsey of Billings; Bryan (Cindee) Woodbury of Lincoln, Nebraska; Zane (Mary Ann) Holmberg of Sandy, Utah; grandchildren, Rachelle (Brent) Walker and Nathan Bailey; Jared, Kyle, Collin, Reed, and Jordan Holmberg; Garrett, Logan, Brynnan, and Kirby Halsey; Teagan, Morgan, Dylan, and Adam Woodbury; great-grandchildren, Madison and Dallen Walker. He is survived by six sisters and two brothers, Marjorie Veltman, Ruth (Joe) Mackay, Velma (Bob) Piep, Arlene Schrock, Elbert "Tuck" Woodbury, Allie Poulsen, Dorothy (Tom) Burke, and Duane "Buck" (Jane) Woodbury. Leo also had many friends who offered care and support throughout his illness. He was preceded in death by his parents and four brothers-in-law.
Burial will follow at the Willow Creek Cemetery.

The first snow of the year was falling the Sunday morning Nelda Calder was born to Fedora Andersen and Ashal Robert Calder in Logan, Cache County, Utah, October 10, 1920.
Nelda loved growing up in Logan a few doors down from her grandparents, spending time every summer at her grandfather's huge farm in Lost River. She was vice president of her senior class at Logan High School where she graduated in 1938. She then attended Woodbury College in Los Angeles where she worked as a nanny and housekeeper for her room and board. She majored in millinery. She enjoyed school and learned many things including sewing, making patterns, making hats, and drawing.
She next attended Utah State University where she met her future husband Charles W. Jensen. They were married March 15, 1941 and sealed for time and all eternity in the Logan Temple on July 29, 1941.

She quilted bedspreads for all of her grandchildren and made Levi picnic quilts for all of her children and many of her grandchildren for wedding presents. When she was 90, she was still making as many as three quilts a week to donate for humanitarian purposes. She was adamant about keeping her family in contact with each other.

She also enjoyed the monthly birthday dinners and Christmas Eve parties held in their home.
Nelda had a great love of music. She took piano lessons and loved playing and practicing the piano all her life. In high school, she was in the band and played the clarinet. This love of music had an influence on her children. The last ten years she enjoyed symphonies and musical events from her center seat at the Jensen Concert Hall, which was made possible by a gift to ISU from her oldest son Joe. One of her happiest moments was sitting in front of President Monson at the Utah Opera Festival in Logan. After the musical, he had the crowd sing Happy Birthday for her 90th birthday and he then gave her a kiss on her cheek.
