Edith Funk Shepherd 1910 ~ 2004

At 93, still a genteel, bright, loving and involved lady, Edith slept peacefully away as she wished, in the company of her beloved son, Robert, and his wife, Roberta, at the Care Source Hospice Center. A stroke only six days before took her from her home of 39 years.

Until then, she never lost her sense of humor or her love of chocolate.

Edith was born November 13, 1910, in Richmond, Utah, a daughter of Lucy Merrill and James William Funk. She was educated in Richmond schools and North Cache Utah School, where she graduated as valedictorian. She graduated from Utah State University (then Utah State Agricultural college) and was a member Chi Omega Sorority, serving two years as president, Theta Alph Phi, honorary theater society, Phi Kappa Phi, honorary scholastic society. She taught school in Paris, Idaho and in Granite High School in Salt Lake County. She never stopped loving to learn.

She married Charles Rich Shepherd August 23, 1937, in the Salt Lake Temple. Both Edith and Charles taught in the LDS Seminary at Afton, Wyoming, and Edith in the Star Valley High School before moving to Hyrum, Utah, where Charles taught seminary in the South Cache High School seminary.

At the beginning of World War II they moved to Salt Lake City, where Charles worked at Hill Field for the duration of the war. Edith taught English at the University of Utah and in Salt Lake City schools, at Horace Mann Junior High School and then at South High School as an English teacher and as a librarian. She loved her students and they her. For her friends she was a resource of the latest in what to read. She was a true professional, serving as a leader in teachers' organizations, as a building representative, as a member of the Executive Council of Salt Lake Teachers' Association, and as chief negotiator for the teachers for two years.

Edith served her church with the same devotion and instinctive ability. Never content with anything less than excellence, she was a member of the YWMIA General Board for 12 years and then a member of the newly established Church Correlation Committee. Respected counterpart to Lowell L. Bennion, she was chairman of the Youth Committee for Girls, in charge of writing lessons.

In 1955 Edith and Charles established and for more than 25 years owned Kiddie Ville, Inc., a unique children's store featuring clothing, furniture, and toys in Provo and Orem.

Though Edith lost much of her eyesight to macular degeneration as well as the ability to move well from her automatic chair, she maintained in her own home the same gracious hospitality that made her a favorite to visit. Her cheerful and insightful conversation never dimmed. She outlived all of her birth family and most of her close friends, but she kept in loving and candid touch with the world beyond her rooms and never lost interest in those others she so thoroughly loved.

She is survived by son Robert and his wife, Roberta, four grandchildren, Elizabeth, David, Emily (Mrs. Jacob Gienger), and Ashley (Mrs. Ryan Johnson), and three great-grandchildren, Ian, Hannah, and Caleb Gienger.

55219. Winifred Barton

The Times-News (Twin Falls, ID)
October 6, 2009

Winifred (Winnie) Barton Stivers, cherished mother, grandmother, aunt and friend, passed away peacefully in her home Saturday, Oct. 3, 2009, surrounded by her immediate family.

Winnie was born to Linna and Charles Barton in Antonito, Colo., on June 12, 1919. She had an older brother, Leland, whom she idolized. Her family moved around southern Colorado from Antonito to Menassa, ending up in Alamosa. Winnie graduated from high school in Alamosa in 1936. After attending Adams State in Alamosa for one year, Winnie began working at F.W. Woolworth's and met Thomas Walter (T.W.) Stivers. They married on Nov. 11, 1940. T.W. went into the Navy and, while he was deployed on a minesweeper during World War II, Winnie rented a room in a boarding house in San Diego, Calif. When T.W. retired from the Navy, they moved to Twin Falls. In 1946, Tom and Winnie had twins, Richard and Susan.

Winnie was always very involved in the Twin Falls community. She supported her husband and two children by being a leader in PTA, Bluebirds, Cub Scouts and Republican Women. Winnie had a lifelong love of reading and keeping up with local, state and national news. After moving to Twin Falls, Winnie played on a bowling league and was an avid bridge player, maintaining the same group for more than 50 years. Winnie always had a love of baseball. The Brooklyn Dodgers was her favorite national team, but the family supported the Magic Valley Cowboys here in Twin Falls. In the early 1960s, T.W. and Winnie bought Boone Land Title Company. The name changed to Title Fact Inc. when they built the office that is currently on Fourth Avenue in Twin Falls.

Winnie was an avid lifelong learner. She and T.W. did extensive world traveling. Both were interested in other cultures and their home is filled with souvenirs and memories of their trips to nearly every continent. It was tradition after each trip that the family would gather for a slide presentation put on in the basement of the family's home.

A common thread that ran through Winnie's whole adult life was her total and complete devotion as a wife, mother, grandmother and friend. She supported both her children in their community endeavors, as well as caring for her granddaughter, Ammy, when she was very young.

Winnie began writing a journal with her daughter, Susan, two years ago, and they would write in it together several times each week. Winnie noted that she wanted to be remembered as someone who saw the good in everyone and never complained. The biggest lesson Winnie learned in life was to accept what happens. She was quoted saying, "I don't try to fight it. Things are going to happen that you can't control. Several times in life, you have two choices and whatever choice you make will determine your future. I've never regretted any choice I've made." Her favorite phrase to any family member or friend who was suffering or enduring hardship, was "this too shall pass."

Winnie is survived by her twins, Richard (Kathy) Stivers and Susan (Deck) Waters; and granddaughter, Ammy Waters, all of Twin Falls; sister-in-law, Wanda Stivers of Hailey; and many nieces and nephews.

Our beloved father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, husband, uncle, and friend, Calvin K. Jacob, 83, passed away April 27, 2003, at the home of his son. Cal was born October 21, 1919, the sixth of seven children born to Isaac and Thea Jacob in Provo, Utah. He grew up on "Temple Hill", which is now part of the BYU campus, but was in the outskirts of Provo at the time.

His father, Isaac Jacob, was one of the first large-scale sheep ranchers in Utah. Cal grew up in a family where respect and love were taught by precept and example. He learned responsibility and hard work at an early age, and a deep and abiding faith in his Heavenly Father. He received the Eagle rank at the age of 13 with 17 other young men in the Provo Manavu Ward, and has since helped scores of young men to achieve the Eagle rank and to go on missions. He worked in the sheep business with his father, and continued in the ranching profession throughout his life.

At the age of 21 he served in the East Central States Mission as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon). Following his mission he met his sweetheart, Ramona Monson, of Pleasant Grove, Utah, and they were married in the Salt Lake Temple on January 28, 1944. Together they devoted their lives to raising their family. He was a dedicated Scout leader for many years, a member of several bishoprics, and a member of the high council. He has been true to the faith and stalwart in all of his church assignments. He was always generous, kind, thoughtful, and loving. He was active in temple and genealogy work all of his life.

His eternal companion, Ramona, passed away on April 18, 1987. Following Ramona's death, Cal married Ramona's identical twin sister, Winona, a widow of Warren Kirk.

Cal is survived by Winona, two of his sisters and a brother: Gladys Burdette, Venice Fugal, and Norton Jacob; and five of his six children: James C. Jacob, Susan Andersen, Margaret Stoddard, Mary Wilder, and Mark Jacob. A son, Richard, passed away in infancy.

Cal has left behind a legacy of six children, 41 grandchildren, and 49 great-grandchildren who will always remember his love and devotion. He is now reunited with Mom and many other loved ones who have gone on before him. We hope to live worthy to be with him throughout eternity.

Interment will be in the Orem City Cemetery located near 800 East 1500 North.
