Surnames: Horsley Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/yAk.2ACIB/403 Message Board Post: One of the lessons cancer teaches us is that each day is a unique and precious gift. David Joseph Horsley, age 47, died Oct. 3rd of Pancreatic Cancer. Though young, he was a man who lived an uncommon life and lived it to the very limits of his longing. He did not need to learn how valuable each day was, as he already knew. He had learned early that life is magic. Even before cancer, he was busy teaching us to laugh early and often - to use our spirits to wonder and to stretch our abilities to fly. In short, he understood the magic each day can bring. He lived his life simply, according to the things he believed in, and never gave up any experience for anything less than it could be. David always thought most people pass through life as though they are asleep and he wanted to be awake for every moment. His odd sense of humor reminded us of a very honest point of view and open tolerance of people of all walks of life. It made us want to see the magic as well. It is the gift he! leaves with us today. He was born Oct. 3rd, 1958, and magically passed from the loving arms of his birth parents to the arms of his true parents, Allen and Louise Horsley. He lived most of his life in Bountiful, Utah, growing up along the banks of Mill Creek, where he explored and fostered a sense of adventure. It was there that he first dreamed of exotic lands, imagining the grit of African sands and taste of sea spray. Never did he dream that he would dine with a five star General of the Kyber Rifles, roam above the Arctic Circle in Iceland, snowball fight with Chinese Police on the Great Wall or ride an elephant with a Maharaja! Never one to excel in school, he chose a different path to learning. After attending Bountiful High School, he dropped out of the University of Utah in 1977 to pursue a dream of traveling. He had taken his first trip abroad at the age of 16. In 1978-79, he was trapped in Iran during the American Hostage crisis, and it was formative in how he tre! ated people. A student of the world, he learned not to think of people 's differences, but rather in terms of what we share: this rare earth and our own humanity. His fervent hope was to travel to all seven continents, but he only reached five, including some 46 countries and the 50 United States. He gained friends in all parts of the world and valued his contacts with them through the years. Rarely, did he lose contact with someone, and so he had many lifelong friends that he counted as family. David married his childhood sweetheart, Julia Phillips, on March 29th, 1980. Married for 25 years, they had known each other for almost 40. Soul mates, they shared the secret that anything broken can be made whole again with love. They began married life at Grand Canyon, Arizona, where David was a Tour Bus Driver. Though they were proud of their Bountiful historic family home and Garden, their spiritual home was always at the "canyon," where the beauty and awe captivated them both. They had a lifetime of exploring the red rock canyons of the Cedar Mesa,! and the ruins within them. While home, they loved to fish the High Uintas and prepare elaborate dinners in spectacular settings. Dinner at the Horsley home was a gastronomic delight with way too many courses topped off by his famous cheesecakes. They also lived a short time in Berkeley, CA, and retain many friends and warm memories from those days. David held many jobs in his lifetime, from delivery driver, hospital security guard, and selling Navajo rugs. Most jobs were a means to an end and of course that was to travel. He owned and operated RugRat Toys with his wife for 20 years and immensely enjoyed traveling and meeting people all over the US. He worked for the US Postal Service for 17 years, finally ending up at the BMEU. He was also a fixture at Pioneer Park on Saturday mornings for the Farmer's Market, where he helped his wife with "Consider The Lilies." We owe a debt of gratitude to both the Post Office and Farmer's Market folk who became our loving and supportive! community, especially in his last days. Preceded in death by his moth er, Louise Horsley, and brother Joseph Horsley, as well as many cherished friends and relatives. He is survived by his wife Julia, father Allen, step-mother Margaret, and two Godchildren, Kaitlynn Holmen and Donovan Burns. Though diagnosed with late stage cancer and only given a short time, he faced each day with courage and humor that were uncommon, and drew many more into his circle of friends. He often had Medical personnel in stitches with his jokes, stretching out his time here to two years. Unhappy with his treatment at one of the major Utah cancer treatment centers, he switched to Utah Cancer Specialists. He understood that the unseen world is so much bigger than the world which is seen, and that was reflected in the amount of time he lived after diagnosis. He urged everyone with Cancer to find a place to be treated with dignity, knowledge and humanity. He especially asked us to never forget that we all live Downwind. We can never begin to thank the doctors and nurses! at UCS and St. Mark's who had the courage to be our friends in this journey. We are especially indebted to Rosie and all of the folks at Interventional Radiology. Please join us in a memorial service to be held in the Orangerie at Red Butte Gardens on Friday, Oct. 7. Friends may call from 6-7 p.m. Service begins at 7. (You know he always hated to be disturbed before noon!) Enjoy the flowers there, and send some if you like. David could not imagine a funeral without flowers and that life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but rather by the number of moments that take our breath away!

James, who was listed in the census as Buckner J. was born in 1908. He was the son of Alice who was born in 1891. Napolean Aills was married to Alice and they had the following children: Napolean B. Aills abt. 1878 Georgia Alice wife Dec. 1891 Buckner J. 1908 (son) Lennie 1910 (daughter) Charles 1912 (son) Goldie 1917 (daughter) Ralph 1924 (son) Ronnie 1927 (son) Alice was listed on the marriage bond as Georgia Alice Kitchen when she and Napolean B. got married in Lewis Co. on 11-12-1905. Georgia was the daughter of Alexander Kitchen b. Feb. 1854 and Martha J. Evans, b. Feb. 1867. Be careful when looking for info on Alexander, there were two of them, actually living next door to each other, and only 10 years age difference and two others that were about the same age. Your Alexander was born in Carter county Feb. 1854, and was the son of James Kitchen and Mary Buckner. This shows you where James B(buckner) Aills got his middle name. Hope this helps. Bob K.

ALDRIDGE on April 6, 1879. He was born Abt. 1857 and died before March 19, 1898 (when his estate was settled, showing him as deceased). I have Eliza's parents as Henderson Allen HORSLEY and Evelyn BLUEBAKER. According to the 1860 Census, Henderson would have been born Abt. 1826 and died abt 1865. Evelyn was born abt 1832. The 1860 census shows Henderson's place of birth as Ky. and Evelyn's as Va. Eliza had one brother, Junius A. (b. abt. 1859), and three sisters, Amanda E.(b. abt 1853), Nancy J.(b. abt. 1863), Mary F.(b. abt. 1856) I have been able to locate only two Henderson HORSLEYs. One belonging to Christopher and Eliza and the other belonging to Christopher's brother Bewell(?) After Henderson died Frazier HORSLEY, Jr. was given guardianship of his 5 children. The guardian's bond states....Now, we, FRAZIER HORSLEY, JR. as principal, and BERREL WHITWORTH." I'm not sure but I think that means they both had guardianship. The 1880 Census shows Eliza living with her husband Horace Aldridge. It also shows Evelyn and Nancy living with them also. Any help on finding Henderson's parents would be greatly appreciated Roxann
