She had been a diabetic for 61 years and since June 1999 had been hospitalized five different times first with a heart attack, then with pneumonia and heart failure, then again with pneumonia, then for 35 days with respiratory and renal failure, and finally for two when her kidneys failed again. Her outgoing and positive nature prevailed to the very last, testament to the strength of her spirit and to the outlook that God made shoulders and burdens, too. Kathryn was born Aug. 6, 1926, in Preston, Idaho, to Norman D. and Eliza Salisbury, both of whom preceded her in death along with an infant brother, Clark. Her father was, early in her life, transferred by First Security Bank and she spent the rest of her life living in Logan.

She worked for six years at First Security Bank and taught kindergarten at Adams Elementary for four years, then at the Edith Bowen Lab School for 10 more as an assistant professor in the Department of Education. In December 1966, Kathryn married Ron W. Smith, an English professor at USU, in Jackson Hole at the newly opened Teton Village resort. In 1972, they adopted two-and-a-half-year-old daughter Lee, now Lee Smith Diller, living with her husband, Matt, in North Carolina. Kathryn dearly loved her family and their pets and took great pleasure in being with relatives and friends. She enjoyed books, music, theater, film, and she loved to travel to Europe, Asia, often in Canada, Mexico and the 50 states. If she had any regrets (they were few and certainly not expressed), they were that her declining health in recent years cut her off from many of these. Kathryn is survived by her husband, Ron; her daughter, Lee; her brother, Brig. Gen. Ret. Norman J. Bud Salisbury and his wife, Annamaria; two nieces and a nephew; four grandnieces and a nephew; other relatives and a legion of friends and acquaintances who will all miss her smiling and kindly ways. Not unimportantly, she is survived by most of the hundreds of former students who had their first elementary school experience under their fondly remembered Miss Salisbury. At the request of the deceased, there will be no services, and in lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the general scholarship fund of the department of elementary education, through the Development Office at USU, 1420 Old Main Hill, Logan, UT 84322.

Franklin County Idaho Mailing List: I am looking for any information at all on Walter HARRIS, born in Oxford, Idaho sometime between 1860-1895. I can only estimate the birth date since I know that his first (I assume) child was born in 1910. The second was born in 1912 and had the father listed as Walter HARRIS, born in Oxford, Idaho. Thanks for your help. Joel Harris Lynden WA
Hi List, I am seeking the burial place of Harriet Yates Quigley, born 25 Jan 1837, died 19 Apr 1880, and buried in the Oxford Cemetery. I understand Oxford is in Franklin County. I would like to know if anyone is familiar with this cemetery so I could check to see for sure if she is buried there. Thank you for your assistance. Lynn R.
